    If you ever want to hit at Lake Shore Park (at Chicago and Fairbanks) let me know. If money isn't a problem try the Lake shore athletic club on McClurg and Erie or Midtown on Fullerton and Elston. A cheaper alternative is McFetridge on California and Irving Park for indoor play. BTW Happy B-Day tomorrow!

    Yeah those are the courts! I go to work at 2pm so if you want to play there before then or after 11pm I'll hit with you. I work at NMH so I just have to knock off at 155pm to make that 5min walk. The only people I don't have patience with is those who can't hit the ball at all. Still being relatively new new to the sport myself (2002) there is only so far down I can bring my game while still wanting to improve. But if you can keep a rally going so that we don't spend more time picking up balls than hitting, then let's hit!

    I live in the Loop not too far from you. I usually play in Grant Park or Dunbar Park on 31st Street. My usual partner is going to be out of town for two months so I'm looking for a replacement ;) Do you know if they've re-opened the courts at 9th Street between the train tracks and Columbus in the park? Drop me an email and we can exchange numbers if you want to play this weekend: crocker@nabou.com

    Hey Amy,

    Sure. When are you free? I'll need to take a break for a little bit- my achilles are a little sore right now.
