Music, Marching & Making Friends

Wow! Chicago! How much fun did I have?!?!


It really could not have been a more perfect weekend. The weather was terrific- we walked around the city and spent a few hours checking out some of the scene down town around Millenium Park, watched the water spray out of the Crown Fountain, walked around Halsted, Hubbard and a few streets in between. Found out the 7-11 has incredible sandwiches and the Marriott lobby was a delightful respite in which to snack and refill our water wine...


The food and music at The Taste of Chicago was great! After the Pride parade, Jules and I went back to the Taste, got some food and fell asleep in the shade of a tree in the park while music was playing around at the event.

The parade was one of the funnest days of my life. Talk about a roadside dance party! Lord have mercy! The floats were unbelievable and the costumes were so creative. I think Jules said Gay Day is her new favorite holiday.. I will have to agree...

Head over to the facebook page to see some more pictures from this weekend's mini-trip. More will be posted soonly!

it's official...

Finished packing and about to take a shower before heading to the airport... Normally sleep is involved somewhere on between, however, I don't remember seeing "normal" ANYWHERE in my hand book on this particular life...

With some of my famous chicken in my belly and a slight sleep deprivation, I'll be mid-west in 6 hours. I hope I remember to take out the trash...

Taste of Chicago 2010

Linda (east coast), will be flying into Chi-Town this Friday 6-25-10. Perfect timing, for us to meet up, as The Taste of Chicago will be opening that very day! We'll have lots of fun stuff to do while we plan the early stages of our epic western roadtrip.....(a "mini roadtrip" i guess. To collaborate, work out some of the kinks, and practice our internet updating efficiency)...should be a blast!
