Randy and Mat have been outstanding hosts - all that you can ask for: kind, friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and funny! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at their B&B. I was able to work on my writing projects in the nice garden in their backyard. They let me borrow their bicycle which I rode by the Lakeshore area. They also pointed me to some good eating places. Randy gave me a ride to my conference hotel following my B&B stay. Had some good conversations with them. Thanks Mat and Randy for letting me be a Chicagoan for a week.
