Chicago Love


I'm at work this week. Kinda silly timing, since my family reunion starts TODAY in Sedona. With any luck, we will be heading home late tonight. Hubby and I might drive up to the cabin this evening, depending on how much is ready to pack up and go. I didn't mean to leave all the grocery shopping for him, but I certainly didn't expect to be working this week, either! Boss #2 is back after not flying since February. I think he is trying to make up for lost time since he will be flying the last three weeks of September. I've been too spoiled at home working on projects!

I am in Chicago right now, and my hotel is located about three-quarters of a mile from Midway Airport. This is one of my favorite destinations since I wake up to the aroma of fresh Tootsie Rolls, thanks to the factory being next door. There are lots of things to do within walking distance. I was going to go downtown yesterday to enjoy a science museum and finally do the River Tour, but it was raining all morning and threatening rain the rest of the day. And Chicago drivers aren't exactly at their best when it's dry, let alone in precipitation! I will have to do it next time I'm here.

I have taken lots of pictures but won't be downloading them to my computer until next week when I get back from vacation. I am so excited to spend this time with my family! Gaining five pounds is on the agenda for us all, among other things.

  1. You had me at fresh Tootsie Rolls. Those are my favorite! I can't even imagine how good that must smell. :)
