Man that train comes twice a day. And if I’m going to rent a car I’d rather just leave Chicago. The parks sorta cool but pales compared to the Dunes in Michigan.

Prairie preserved huh that’s different? St Louis has some nice hills in the metro. But I’m a fan of urban hills.

I’ve considered Cinci as well but it just seems sleepier and less dense than Pittsburgh. And i feel I’d rather be around an eastern USA derived culture than lower Midwest.

I like Milwaukee’s parks decently and there’s some hills there. Not enough but a lot more.

Yeah I figure I’d get a car but avoid using it for a fair chunk of the year.

Shame about the skies although I’d imagine the views would mostly make up for it?
