A Wonderful Mistake
Jay Johnson is the owner of this wonderful bungalow. A dear friend and I traveled from California to Chicago to speak at our old high school. I was tasked with getting a VRBO place within walking distance of the school. I typed in the parameters and eventually found Jay’s house. However, I did not read the very clear description closely. Instead of being less than a mile from the school, it was 12 miles away in Oak Park Illinois. Ironically, the house and the school are both on the same Division Street, just separated by 12 miles. I was dismayed by my mistake. However, it turned out to be a wonderful mistake. The house is 20’-30’ from O’Hare depending on traffic and 30’ from downtown Chicago. We used Uber every day to travel to and from downtown. It turned out to be cheaper and more practical than renting a car. For example, we never had the hassle of trying to find parking and our Uber driver always dropped us off at the precise location we wanted. Moreover, parking in the city can be expensive and not always easy to find. (My friend and I are both native Chicagoans.) Additional thoughts: First, Jay is a wonderful host. He met us at the house, walked us through It, and carefully explained how everything operated. He told us where we could find Wholefoods and various eateries in this charming village. Second, Jay could not have been a more forward-looking host. He has meticulously thought out what guests need and has provided those things. I highly recommend this house.
