Chicago

we interrupt this blog for an important message from sethandjessandvolvo:

so last weekend we decided to cut our trip a little short. we have been on the road for over a month but yeah, us, money, and volvo are getting tired. i mean its only gonna be like a week or so shorter than planned, but its pretty expensive to drive across the country, see peeps and feed our hungry bellies. we'd love to see all our friends and family on the east coast but it will have to be another time. we also decided to go to chicago first and then iowa on the way back home instead of the other way around if we were heading east.

now back to the blog...



The windy city temporarily changed its name while we were there to, the hot and humid city.
No breeze anywhere.


The "L" train.


Lake Michigan was so cold, and so refreshing.


The lake is 118 miles wide and 307 miles long. It looks like the ocean.


We made sand sculptures on the beach!




Chicago style pizza, with the sauce on TOP?! Now we've seen everything....yum



Chicago style parking?!


We made Beth and Jake a summer dinner of salad, bread, and brie. It was too hot to cook, but just as satisfying.


Beth and Jake were so fun and great. We had such a good time and were so comfortable in they're awesome home.
