to honor the thanksgiving weekend coming to an end, i want to give thanks to one of my closest friends, Michelle. she spent almost 3 years as a traveling nurse, and it is because of her i've seen Chicago, Illinois. i was in Chicago October 2008 to celebrate her 29th birthday. at the time she was working in Madison, WI and she met me in Chicago for her birthday weekend.
i loved Chicago. we had a perfect time. the weather, the sight seeing, the company. all perfect. the city was so much fun. read details here, and see more pictures here.
one day i would love to go back to Chicago and soak up the city even more.
SO FUN. i bet that was a blast! i went to chicago with my family when i was 19--we DROVE from albuquerque for my brother-in-law's medical school graduation (he's from chicago). i LOVED it. my favorite was shopping on michigan avenue. my mom even bought a pair of gucci shoes while we were there, which she gave to me a year later because they hurt her feet. we went to the shedd aquarium and had lunch at the top of the hancock building. BEAUTIFUL city.
ReplyDeleteI would totally love to go to Chicago again. I think it's my favorite city in the States. And I am thankful that you and Michelle have always been good friends. You are a blessing to her too!
