Chicago!

September brought a fantastic trip to Chicago! We spent the first night just eating pizza of course and then headed off to Wheaton to see where Adam had spent most of his childhood. We got to see some old friends who Adam had been good friends with their son (photo below).The pictures below are the house that Adam grew up in. We did not get to do inside but it was special to see where he had spent Christmas and summertime for many years! We even got to see where he had gotten his hair cut since he was a kid! Above is a photo of the elementary school where Adam and his brother Rob went - Aren't they cute!
Of course we visited the Garmin store in Chicago. Below is Adam next to the bike device that he had a big part in creating! Go Adam the engineer!
We were there the weekend that they had Jazzfest so we spent one afternoon touring the park and listening to good music.

One evening we got tickets to take a boat ride and see the site - fun times on the water!This is how Adam and Rob look most of the time that they are together - Laughing their heads off! It make for an exciting dinnertime!

And what trip to Chicago would be complete without a Cubs baseball game?
Adam and I spent an extra afternoon just touring around - The aquarium was wonderful! All in all a great time in the windy city!
