The cherry on top of this cross country adventure was ending up in the great city of Chicago, Illinois. I'm a city boy through and through and as much as the drive, and the farm, and the car were definitely experiences, being in this urban metropolis brought back so many feelings of when I was in New York last summer. It was exhilarating and depressing; alas it's not my life. But it is the life of one of my favorite couples and two old friends, Dave and Danielle. They were kind enough to let me stay with them in their beautiful apartment in River North. Here are some pictures from the Chicago part of my adventure, which if you can believe was quite windy. Who would have thought?

One of the things I feel is most rewarding about writing a blog is being able to absorb and take in the experiences that mean the most to me. This trip was especially rewarding because I was able to share it with good friends, while expanding my horizons and adapting to different environments. It didn't last long enough.
