Ode To An Old Friend

The sun beaming with warmth..
My maxi dress dancing in the breeze...
Sensation of my pale skin turning pink...

During my lunch hour I broke away from mastering public relations to say "hello" to my old friend, Summer. She's so lovely and kind. It was hard to walk away from her and head back into the office.  She is an amazing reminder why Chicagoans endure her evil  stepsister, Winter.

Top 3 reasons I LOVE Chicago in the Summer

1) The Lake Front -  Twenty-six miles long with 31 beaches. Yes, B-E-A-C-H-E-S, in the Midwest!

2) Endless amounts of outside activities... and usually FREE. Movies in the Park, Shakespeare in the Park, Concerts in the Park and Street festivals (not in the park)

3) Alfresco dinning & Roof tops

I had to keep my list to 3 or I would have listed at least 100 reasons.

Happy Summer!
