This past weekend Wade had a business trip to Chicago and I piggy backed onto the front end of the trip. We had a great time. Kenneth and Melanie came to our townhouse and watched Carson and Claire. I think they had an equally good time. Thanks so much y'all.
Friday night steak dinner.

Natalie and Bobby met us at the Tavern for drinks after dinner.They're some of Wade's friends from A&M.
We decided to take a boat trip through the river and lake to see and hear all about the Windy City.
Trump's newest building. Soon to be the tallest in Chicago.
The sailboats relocate to warmer waters in the fall. The streets are draw bridges so that they can get through. Chicago has 80 some odd draw bridge/streets.
Deep dish Chicago style pizza. YUM!
Shopping on Michigan Ave. TONS of people.Are we in Chicago or New York?
We went to the Hancock Tower for drinks on the 85th floor.
The elevator took 40 seconds to get there non-stop.
F-A-S-T. 
The best view was actually in the ladies room. Wade said there weren't even windows in the men's room. Go figure.
After our cocktails.

We had dinner with one of Wade's distributors. Scuzi's Italian.Great.
On my way home on Sunday I had to get a Chicago style hot dog. They come with some bright green relish, banana bell peppers, Klausen pickle, mustard, sliced tomatoes and celery salt. Surprisingly good and interesting combo.

Oh I am so jealous... I love Chicago. I have been to the Hancock Tower and I agree the best shot is from the women's bathroom... go figure seems to be a waste of good view... I am glad that you guys got to get away and enjoy each other. You look so happy and in love.
Even through a hurricane, you manage to get out alot of blogging, impressive! Love them all- thanks for sharing!
What a fun trip - I heart Chicago. It was so good to see you guys yesterday!
