Colorful Chicago

Happy Monday, Peeps.

Here are some of the promised pics from Chicago:

This is my sister and me driving around, having fun .... obviously.

This is my darling niece, T, and their cute little puppy, Gizmo.

This is my wonderfully cute nephew, P:

Here are some of the pics of color:

This is my "Are we having fun yet?" look on the trolley ride in Chicago:

This is a view of Grant Park from our hotel window:

This is a picture of a very, very special can of Coke. It's so special that it cost me four bucks to drink it. Yes, it came from the mini-bar on a morning when I was badly in need of caffeine and was weak:

This is showing the view of Lake Michigan from our window:

This is the view at night. This is Navy Pier .... note the ferris wheel:

This is the Field Museum at night (from our window):

Zooming in:

D & I on the trolley:
Grant Park:

Shedd Aqaurium:

Navy Pier in the day time:

So there you go, Peeps ..... some of my Chicago pics. D and I had a great time. It was good to just have time with her, away from our kids and our every day lives. I'm thankful that her wonderful hubby was so supportive of her having some time with me. Thanks, M!!

Today was a hugely rainy day in our neck of the woods. I thought we might have to think about building an ark, but the rain let up tonight.

It's a good thing because I really was not up for hunting for 2 of every kind of beast and fowl. I have enough to put up with with my horse/dog and two teenage boys!

Tomorrow is Tuesday, which is the day before "Ask Me Wednesday" ..... you've been warned/reminded.

Thanks for reading/commenting/lurking.

Sleep well, Peeps, and have a terrific Tuesday.

:)
