Remain in Light
Man, I hope the weather stays this way for Candi and Brian’s visit this weekend. Well, Brian will be here tomorrow, but no Candi for us until late Thursday night, so late that it will practically be Friday.
It’s bright, sunny, and pushing 80? F or 27? C for those of you unfortunate enough to be subject to Celsius, aka Centigrade (and what’s the difference, anyway?). Even though I lived in the semi-Metric hell that is Canada for a few years, I never did get used to the whole Metric thing. I had spent my formative years with feet, yards, inches, and gallons, so it was way too late for me to figure out centimeters, meters, and so on. I never did. 27? still sounds cold to me.
Anyway, I hope it stays bright and sunny and the City is at its pretty best. I had company for the first weekend of June and it was windier than Chicago. Ever notice when you go to visit someone, the weather was always great the week before you got there, or improves dramatically the week after you leave?
So, if you were going to spend a weekend in everyone’s favorite city on a warm, sunny day, what would be tops on your list to do and see?

I love Chicago. Sorry, that was kind of random, but really. I’m from Chicago, and I’d really like to go back one day.
Hmmm. I’d probably want to spend a good amount of time just walking around. Maybe down at the wharf because there are all sorts of interesting things and people. Plus – plenty of food and beverage along the way for the necessary rest and gossip periods. Such a wonderful city.
Like Kelly said already, walking is fun. Driving is good when your feet hurt if you haven’t seen everything. But walking is tops on my list! 🙂 Or biking, or rollerskating, or something along those lines. Heh.
Stop obsessing about the weather, girl, because really, I could give a rat’s ass. Of course, it’d suck to walk around in the rain, but I don’t care if it’s foggy or chilly or warm or whatever. I’ll just be happy to see you guys! 🙂
