Wrigley Field

Bad boy Carlos Zambrano has been placed on the disqualified list and the Cubs now have a new manager.  Perfect time to catch a game at the world famous Wrigley Field.  Personally, my favorite seat in the house is the upper deck behind home plate...near the press box.  There is a beautiful outside patio where you can grab your food of choice, for me a loaded hotdog and a beer, and at the same time take in the beautiful skyline of Chicago.  Breathtaking.

Headed To The Beach......in Chicago

It is August.  And, it is hot.  Head to the beach for a little R & R. 

Enjoy Lake Michigan beachfront in Chicago while city skyscrapers tower over you to the west.  It's breathtaking.  When you've had enough sun, pack up and you are merely steps away from Michigan Avenue where you can walk the magnificant mile, window shop, and taken in dinner along the way.
