About Me

Chicago, IL, United States
Every since I was a little girl watching "The Bob Newhart Show" I have wanted to move to Chicago. Now is my time and I am super excited!! Call me crazy - but life is too short not to go for it!! In this blog I will be documenting all the ups and downs of our adventure -

Now what you've all been waiting for......

Ahhhhh Chicago!!  What can I say? We had a fantastic time!!  I LOVE IT!  It's everything that Bob Newhart said it would be and more!:-)



The El is a great way to get your excersize in.  It's really funny because you don't really expect to see something look exactly like it does in the movies but the El looks EXACTLY like it does in the movies!







We actually walked the Magnificent Mile - but this is the best picture I could get without getting hit by a crazy taxi driver.






I got a kick out of the fact that there is an "Ashland" and "Cottage Grove" in Chicago!

The bridges are great! The tour boats sqquuueeezzee underneith them.



Here is a picture of the famous Corn Cob tower - built in 1962 - a good year!



So we've narrowed it down to 2 apartments that we like.  One in the South Loop and one in "The Loop" - which is downtown.  Let's hope one of them is still availble after we get the house sold!  ARGH!
