Greetings from Chicago!

Well hello there!

I’ve been having such an awesome time here this year! I’ll be sharing pictures of the show soon, but I wanted to share some photos from downtown with you.

I was fortunate enough to be invited to see the city with Lindsey, Michele and her family! This is such an amazing city!! I don’t have time for a lot of narration this morning, But just wanted to show you some photos from our tour of the city. We walked the Magnificent Mile, and went on a river and shore boat tour as well. FABULOUS! Hope you like the pics! Click on them to view full size.

I’ll be back soon with some yummy eye candy! :D

I am glad that you are having such a good time.Love, M……

Just love 333 Wacker. Has to be my fave building.

Chicago is a beautiful city! I was born and raised here but unfortunatley most people only think of it from the Al Capone era and all the violence instead of the beauty of the city, buildings and lake. Your photos capture it wonderfully! Glad you were able to enjoy the city.

Trudee,

Don’t you just love Chicago? My old stomping grounds! Wish I could have made CHA this year - but it sounds as though you are having fun. Be sure to get on over to North Pier. Cheryl

So glad you’re enjoying my home town. I was born and raised on the south side (the side made infamous by Jim Croce’s song!) but now live in the Bay Area. It’s a gorgeous city, so well kept, so much to do, great restaurants, shopping and museums. AND home of the first place Chicago Cubs–my all time favorite team….what’s NOT to like about Chicago! Enjoy the rest of your time there–can’t wait to see pics of all the yummy new goodies hitting the market soon!

Great photo’s, I have never been to chicago and I was brought up in Michigan, guess it will be another city on my list to try out!

Great photos, Trudee! The only time I was in Chicago (Great Lakes Naval Base) was on 11/22/63, the day John Kennedy was shot. The whole city closed down, so didn’t get to see much of the city.

Enjoy the city and keep your eyes open for Oprah!

I’m so glad that you are having such a fabulous time T! These pictures are wonderful! Can’t wait to see more! :D

Wowsa! Gorgeous pics! So glad you guys are having a blast together!!!

Love the pictures of Chicago! I would love to visit that city (and Oprah!!!) someday. Thanks for sharing this with us and glad you are having fun.

So glad you are enjoying Chicago. It is a fabulous city and it looks like you had a great guide. Your pictures do a beautiful job of capturing the city!

Great pictures. I love Chicago! I live in Michigan and love to go to Chicago. There’s so much I’ve yet to see. This makes me want to go back!
Hope you’re having fun. CHA AND Chicago! Can’t wait to see more pix.

Wow — those photos are fantastic! I love Chicago — by brother lives there, and it’s a great city to visit!! Glad you’re having a great time! :)

I really hate not being at CHA this year. It is such a fun and creative event. I was there last summer and had a ball. I can’t wait to see the new stuff!

Our family went the over Christmas school break last Decenber and had so much fun. Don’t miss the PIZZA it’s unique. Happy exploring.

OMG I love Chicago, I was there last year on Vacation. I had a great time, I can’t wait to go back. I love the pics that you posted, brings back so many good memories.

Gorgeous pics, Trudee! So glad to hear that you are having an awesome time! Can’t wait ’til you’re home (safe & sound) and we get to hear about the deets!

Your pictures are very beautiful…I am about 25 minutes away from Chicago. Love it! I would have loved it more to be at CHA and meet you and all the wonderful artists.
