Oh to be young again.....

A few weekends ago we went to Chicago with the Chayers.  Needless to say we were kid free and enjoying an adult weekend.  We flew in on Friday afternoon, checked into the hotel and then headed out to see how many drinks we could consume.  Well it wasn't actually a mission it was just something that 'happened'.  HA!
And so we've arrived!!!!   I think this was at LUX Bar.  We went to so many but it was still early in the night.  Dinner reservations were at Carmines, a great Italian restaurant which is part of the Rosebud Restaurant collections.   Very Tasty!!

It was a little chilly out as we were sitting on the patio,  but it was set up really nice so it actually looks like we were inside.   Great spot if you ever get to Chicago, right on Rush St.  Nummy.

We woke up Saturday hoping for some nice weather since were going to the Cubs game at Wrigley, but unfortunately it was chilly, again, and a little rainy.  We lasted until about the 6th inning before it really started to rain.  Our seats were amazing and it would have topped off the day if it would have been a little sunnier, or at least no rain, BOO!!




We were in the 2nd row right next to the visitors bull pen.  The Cubs were playing the Cincinnati Reds, the Cubs did win but I was hoping to go home with a foul ball or something sitting that close.  But nobody gave one up and I went home alone.  Well without the ball that is.  

It was a really fun weekend.  We thought we were 21 again and felt all of our ages the next day but muddled through and had a blast......Till the next time, Chicago................
