  I am so glad you got to go to Millennium Park and the big bean! : ) I hope you had a taste of some good pizza, too…

  Ooh, you were so close! Too bad you couldn’t have taken a quick detour to the west.

  I see you shopped, did you get anything great?!

  From lyrics to snapshots, I never cease to be inspired here.

  My ONE visit to Chicago was gorgeous. LOVED it. It was in September and could not have been more lovely.

  I would love to go to Chicago to visit the art museum. The painting “Paris Street, Rainy Day” by Gustave Calliabote is there and it is one of my favorites!
