CHICAGO: I'm Coming Home!!!





Well not exactly. I am not from Chicago and I have never actually lived there, but I might as well have. I visited Chicago for the first time more than ten years ago, and I immediately fell in love. During the Michigan years, being only a four hour drive from Chicago, I was there every other weekend. I simply could not get enough of the damm place. From the Mag Mile, to State Street, to the River, museums, and most importantly the ARCHITECTURE, from the minute I set foot there I immediately felt I belonged. Unfortunately, I am stuck in freakin Miami which put against Chicago is like comparing a Kia to a Benz. For years I have been saying that I want to live in Chicago and will stop at nothing to do so. The fact is that I have not done much recently to actually move there, but that's another story. My dream.......living in Chicago, working for Boeing, going to watch the White Sox's and trying to find my reflection on the bean just for fun! Maybe one day!

So finally, this week I will be going back to Chicago after a two year absence. Even though I have been there countless times, every time I go I am just as excited! Each time its a little harder to leave!!!
