chicago visit

Last week Janell and I toured Chicago - she has been there multiple times, but for me it was a first. What a great city. Driving in on I-94, well, very cool. It brought back memories of every big, exciting large city I've ever been to. So much action. So much going on. I took an immediate liking to Lake Shore Drive, still in the city, but feels like you're out. Janell said she could see herself running up and down the lakeside along the impressive skyline if we lived there (I could too). If we did, we would be in close proximity to good friends and family: Mike & Mandie, Vicki & Frank, and Heide & Steve, and Garrett (we definitely could see you as a Chicago guy). In late evening we walked admiringly along the Magnificent Mile, enjoying the sights, sounds, lights, stores of a superbly clean city. First visit to Chicago: A+

We're glad you had a nice visit in Chicago. We were hoping to see you during your visit to the Midwest but we'll have to catch up some other time!

Heide, we found out afterwards that we were there right as you were moving....too bad we didn't come down and help with another one of your moves!
