| Hey Thanks! Did you like growing up in Evanston? We're hoping its a town where people will walk around a lot so we can get to know people. We're also going to be there for at least 5 years, so who knows if we'll eventually raise a kid there. I would love to get together with people in the area and meet-up with the same dogs a lot. It takes a while for my Paddy to warm up to new dogs. He can be a brat at times, especially with dogs that like to wrestle, but if he chases tennis balls with the same dogs a bunch of times then he likes them. Hence his best friend here being a black lab.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Yes I loved it but of course that was back in the 50's and 60's. It is like any bigger city, you have to know where not to go out at night. By the university is nice. Definately an area where people walk around alot. Very close to Chicago, great public transportation. I love the beautiful pic of your wedding and Paddy.

| I bought my wedding dress in Evanston and it brings back warm memories of living in Chicago just a few miles away. I've been back many times but not to Evanston but I am sure it is still a very nice place to live. I never considered it a big city but it's all in what you compare it to I guess. As you can see I live in Ohio and have for more yrs that I want to say but if you read my signature you can see I'm still a Cubs fan!! Bet you will be too!! Good Luck on your move and keep us posted. Joan

| lol yea I don't know if I can consider it a big city after living in New York. Chicago yes..but Evanston seems more like a college town/suburb. I think we will like it though. As for baseball, it will be weird to not have the whole yankee/red-sox/mets things going on lol.

| Well, congratulations on your move and your wedding. Love the pic with your furbaby! I don't live in Evanston, I live in Lansing. About 1 hr. away. 20 miles south of Chicago. Glad to have a "neighbor" on the forums!
