travel: Weekend Trip to Chicago

As a former Chicagoan I try to visit every year to catch up with old friends and see the sites and so I decided to take a last minute trip this past weekend. The weather was about 60  – a little too cool for my Texas blood considering I packed all the wrong clothes. Regardless, walked to Cloud Gate (or what I like to refer as “the bean”) early Saturday a.m., then checked out a fantastic textile exhibit at the Art Institute Saturday midday, followed by lunch with friends the Gage. If you ever go, try the burger or fish and chips. Both are to die for. Cheers! xo Kristi
