Fall Party and Improv

Sunday was a nice fall day.  Our neighborhood had its annual fall party, then we went to see our friend in a comedy improv show. We also got our Covid and flu vaccines.










 

New Art Exhibits

Two new exhibits at the AIC. The first is woven baskets by a Native American artist. Beautiful work.



 And then, there are these  portraits.

Congratulations


 Our boy finally got his results from the bar exam.  As expected he passed with a very high score and we couldn’t be prouder.

Open House Chicago

Sunday we went to several buildings during Open House Chicago. It was a beautiful day to walk around outdoors.

The Columbia Yacht Club was on a big boat,
That used to carry passengers and was also able to cut through ice.




1North Dearborn is an older building that’s been completely renovated. We got access to the rooftop and employee lounge.


At the Federal Reserve we saw the lobby and the money museum.


333 South Wabash is a skyscraper called Big Red. We went to the 19th floor to see an empty floor and the views. Then on the second floor food court, Budlong was giving out free sandwiches, fries and Coke.



At the Chicago Symphony Center we went to the 9th floor for the view, went into a private box for a view of the hall and heard the civic orchestra string quartet.

Friend’s Wedding

Wonderful weekend at our friend’s wedding. Weather was beautiful and the ceremony and reception were top notch. 
Having seen the kids all grow up it was really special to spend this time with everyone.
