A trip to Chicago is on the horizon. I can’t wait.
Sure, August isn’t exactly the best weather time to be there, but hey, I’m looking forward to watching the Olympics in different sports bars and just wandering the town. As long as there’s no freak summer storm, I think we’ll be fine.
Oh, and suggestions for fun stuff to do are always appreciated.

Just visited Chicago about two weeks ago. The weather wasn’t that bad, but it was still hot and humid. Sadly, I didn’t go to any baseball games. Only the Cubs were in town and my codo hurt too much to pay $80 for a ticket on StubHub.
Make sure to take advantage of the free trolley service downtown. I found just wandering around Grant Park and Millennium Park to be fun. At night, we wandered around the river at the Magnificent Mile. Um… what else? Make sure you’re wearing sandles and shorts when you visit the Crown Fountains at Millennium Park. It’s also fun to just people watch there.
