Let’s Go to Chicago

After four days of sicky-ness, I woke up this morning breathing freely and feeling well-rested. Hooray for healthiness.

I remember getting sick constantly when I lived in Chicago. I couldn’t take all those months of bitter cold. Nevertheless, I adore Chicago! I get misty-eyed thinking about my old stomping grounds Hyde Park and Lincoln Park. The river, the architecture, the culture, the shopping, the food. What’s not to love? Oh yes, the cold.

Here’s a link to GOOP’s recent post on Chicago. It makes me want to go! I haven’t been to any of the places except for the Elysian Hotel where I stayed during our reunion two years ago. It’s even better than the picture. But how fun would a weekend in Chicago be, checking out all the restaurants.
