Christmas in Chicago





Snow, more snow, and then ice falling. 25 degree days feeling like a heat wave. Acknowledging that heated seats are the most important car accessories.  
Seeing Dirty Dancing the musical on stage. Diving into some awesome deep dish pizza. Finishing a 1000 piece Edward Hopper puzzle. Christmas dinner turning into Christmas brunch, heavy on the mimosas and undercooked pancakes.  
Throwing snowballs. Being mistaken for a Navy boy and scoring free drinks on Christmas Eve. Jaw dropping at the ridiculous displays of wealth in Lake Forest, IL. Touring my first Franklin Lloyd Wright designed building.
These are only some of my many memories celebrating a great Christmas in Chicago/Lake Forest, IL.
