Fun Times Up North

Saturday thru Monday, we were up in the Chicago area visiting some of our good friends from college years.

Here's a brief look at our weekend........


Stop to shop at Big John's on the way up........

......... where I found it odd that these 2 books were placed together:


big topic of discussion up here - will add 68 cents to the cost of a 2-liter:



rolled 6 ones on the van mileage

a couple more shots of the Chicago Fire game (see earlier post as well):



sitting on the field post-game waiting for fireworks


just 1 shot from our IKEA visit;  kinda hard to see, but these 3 wooden items were carved in 3 separate countries: China, India, Romania

(p.s. my Swedish meatballs were delicious!  and free!!)


visit to The Plush Horse ice cream shop where all 30+ flavors are made in-house

but their neighbors...... church neighbors...... aren't very accommodating:

Just couldn't pass up visiting Whole Foods...... my first visit...... before Amazon gets ahold of them

coolest thing about the store: take a look at this light fixture:

My whopping purchase at Whole Foods:

(the Diet Dew is sweetened with Stevia)

Goodness!  look at this!!  6 taxes on my purchase:

our friends had a box of Rizzos cereal!

Lunch -- DELICIOUS LUNCH -- is under there.

Out for now.......

Matt
