Chi-Town

August 30 to September 4

It is so exciting to be back in Chicago and here to celebrate the marriage of my best friend, Mark "Snoop" Kutilek and his lovely wife Amy. Preseason Bears game on Thursday, rehearsal on Friday, Cubs on Saturday (plus the Map Room later, and pizza way later), and the wedding on Sunday. I am lucky to survive that, although it may have contributed to me giving a long best man speech and forgeting to toast (the DJ told me to go back up on stage). What a great wedding and celebration! It was probably the best one I have ever been to complete with mosh-volleyball on the danceflo!

Labor Day was crazy Libertyvillain style. Our last Michigan beers before the West, meat and awesome food by the Groner women. We needed a day of rest on Tuesday before hitting the road.
