Recreation
We would love two nights at any bed-and-breakfast within a half day's drive or train ride from Chicago.
Or for camping, we have little besides a tent and sleeping bags; could use cookware, ground pads, etc.
Could use lumbar support pillows for car.
For music and books we both like, check the  Garrett Derner wish list  at Amazon.com
  note: "The Complete RCA Recordings" is a collection of Fritz Kreisler (not Bedrich Smetana)
