The Windy City...

As I mentioned in a previous post Ted and I got to travel to Chicago during June. I had to go for work so he tagged along as well. We squeezed as much as we possibly could during our 5 days there, which is very tiring when you have to work all day too. So here is a few pictures from our trip!


Cubs Game!

It was extremely HOT!

Exploring around Wrigleyville!

Went to a bar called the Houndstooth... see Alabama representation in the back.
This is a local beer that is pretty tasty, and I am a self proclaimed "beer snob". (because I don't really like it that much)

This is Sue... the largest T-Rex in the world.
She lives at the Field Museum.

Navy Pier

Architectural Boat Tour
By far the best thing we did there!(well the Cubs game was really good too)
 I think I took about 500 pictures of buildings. It is really interesting to find out the story behind each one.

Found a local lit Blues bar one night after dinner. I think you have to be a big fan of Blues music to appreciate it but Ted really enjoyed it.


Went on a sunset dinner cruise.

As you can see... this is the BEST way to see the city!

No we didn't go to this, I just liked how the picture turned out.

Thanks Chicago for a great time!
(and me getting a little work done along the way)
