Been having a great time hanging out around Chicago. Some pics below with some of our activities throughout mid-July.
Checked out the playground near the forest preserve where we went running one day
Was so hot in chicago, we decided to go running at Fort Sheridan park which is right on Lake Michigan. An open-water swim was a great way to cool off after our 5k.
After our exercise, we visited the Fort Sheridan cemetery nearby.
Grabbed some lunch in Highland Park at a raw, vegan and gluten-free restaurant. Quite expensive but tasty!
Skyline panorama from the Willis Tower, aka Sears Tower.
New addition to the Willis Tower allows you to walk out over the edge and look straight down to street-level!
Toured the Chicago cultural center building during our trip downtown
A pleasant day for a boat ride with some nice scenery in the background
A pleasant day for a boat ride with some great background scenery. Never took one of these boat tours during my first 18 years living in Chicago
Evening view of the Chicago River. Had a great time out with some family!
A wine and cheese picnic on the lawn at Ravinia. A perfect evening with really light crowd on a Monday.
A relaxing day for the cats.. Surprisingly they get along quite well!
