I am very much looking forward to my visit to Chicago 11-26 thru 28th--staying at the Fairmont and hit the gym regularly. Me, 180#, 5'11", drk brn hair, grn/brn eyes, clean cut, hairy chest/abs., 44c,34w, 7.0 cut esp. thick--always enjoy loosening up after pumping iron thru the showers and the steam room. I don't think it can get too hot for me in there., or can it?? See ya soon!

If you're in Chicago, don't miss this gem. Entry fees: $18 for non-members; $15 for most nearby hotel guests; $12 with an IHRSA pass from your own health club.

I was working out here while the Gay Games were in town. This LSAC hosted the racquet ball event. When I finished my workout, one of the teams was in the steam room, hot tub, and sauna. And of course, it was A LOT fun.
