As you probably heard I’m heading to Chicago in a few weeks for my first live game at Soldier Field. As a lifelong fan it’s crazy (to me) that I’ve never seen the beloved play in person, let alone at Soldier Field. Seen plenty of other teams over the years, just not Chicago. Wife thought we should go before they move on to wherever they end up next. To say I’m amped would be an understatement.

We have a pretty full agenda for this trip but always appreciate any local perspectives if you guys have any. I fully intend to participate in the tailgate stuff so that’s on the list. Any other ideas? I’ll be sure and wave to to all when we’re at the game.

I like walking the river north area up to Michigan Ave, always a spectacular site for photos with water, architecture, and lights.

I’d tell you to be prepared for the cold weather. Then again I’m from AZ and you’re Alaskan perspective might be that it’s hot.

The river tour is amazing.

We are sound that. Steph found one that’s called the ‘architecture ’ tour. Friends of hers insisted.

Ha!!! Funny enough my wife (Steph) is cold no matter where she goes. Stood on a beach in 85 Hawaii…with a hoody and told us it was cool. I’ll have whiskey for me…just in case.

Excellent idea. Been awhile since I’ve been in town but looking forward to seeing the museum, aquarium, Navy Pier etc. And even Sears Tower - or whatever it’s called these days.
