I'm out and about for work again, this time in Chicago. Downtown Chicago is by far my favorite "big city" that I've ever visited. Maybe it because I've been here more often, but I feel comfortable here. Whenever I visit I drive down since its relatively easy to get to, only about 5 hours without traffic. I don't bring maps any more, I just know where to go. And once I'm here I love walking around. I took the picture above last night from the Michigan Avenue bridge over the Chicago river. It had just started raining so I was headed back to my hotel.
Now I have another day and a half before I head home. If we had planned a little further in advance Jackie could have joined me and we would have stayed until Sunday, but she couldn't get the time off. Oh well, next time hopefully. Chicago was the first trip we ever went on together, almost 6 years ago. I would really like to come back with her, not for business but just for fun. Hit the museums, walk Michigan Avenue, sit on the beach with the city behind us, get some deep dish pizza, have dinner at Harry Caray's, hit my favorite Irish Pub at the Chicago Hilton. So much stuff to do.
Well, time to get ready for work.
