I created this group in hopes of finding friends in the area that enjoy biking, walking and using public transit to get to places, activities and functions. My husband and I choose to live car-free, renting a vehicle when the need arises. I have a variety of interests and expect the group to have an even bigger variety. Examples of outings might include: biking to Algonquin Commons for shopping; taking the train to Arlington Park and biking over to Woodfield; taking the train to attend a race da …

Beginner or professional, join us! You don't have to call yourself an artist to enjoy making art and playing with art materials! Let's draw and paint together in relaxing settings like the park in summer, and churches, museums, etc., in winter. In the park, a person sketching a statue could be next to someone watercoloring a scene of frisbee players. At a museum, of course, subjects abound! No judgment, no comparison - you don't even have to share your work if you don't feel like it. Ju …

We'll see if we can get group discounts to some events, explore some "free days" at museums, go visit cheap greasy spoon diners, throw parties, etc. If you ca …

Hi fellow introverts. Please read guidelines below, before joining this group. (Thank you) For those of us who are introverts/loners and/or "live inside" our heads, making new friends can be more of a challenge since even the chattier types of us tend to be more quiet overall in new social situations. We don't mind awkward silences and tend to "observe" others for awhile first before joining in. Or, we don't fit into the typical "extrovert" social cliques because the idea of meeting others at ba …
