Arlington Sat.
 
I'll be driving through Illinois on Sat, and was thinking of making a detour to Arlington. Can anyone tell me how long it takes from say Gary Indiana?, and would it be best to stay on 90 through Chicago, or take 294?

Thanks

If no insane traffic, it would be about 90 min..assuming you survive the trip through Gary;). And because it's SAturday, I would stay on 90 the whole way. There is construction on 294 and you should be able to get through the city ok. You should come over...supposed to be a beautiful day and it's a good card

yeah, don't stop there, bad news....

I am making an appearance on Saturday

Stay on 90N and take that to 53W (I think) and then take that to Euclid Ave, and then you will see the Palace

You have recommending Channing Hill....you should be thrown in the basement for a week for that recommendation

I know where the hell I am going, I just can't describe or know what direction is, the only time I know where I am at is when I am at Lake Michigan, because everything is east from there.

I can't believe you have never just driven into the lake because you thought you were on 290W
