Lions

The Art Institute lions got their Christmas wreaths on Friday morning, just before I arrived for my shift.

 

Thanksgiving Parade

We volunteered for the Thanksgiving Parade again this year. It was quite cold but not raining or snowing. We had a good time again. No balloons this year, we only went through once carrying our banner for a hotel.

First Snow

First snow of the winter. Started last night and continued all day.

 

Wonderful Weekend

Had another great visit with our friends. It’s really nice to spend time together in person again. We also got to see how much our old town has changed since we left.

 

Gallery opening

We went to a gallery opening with the SCA. They had a nice reception and we met some new people. Afterwards, we had a nice party tray dinner at a nearby restaurant.

 

Day Out

Went on a walking tour downtown for Hubby’s birthday. Walked past this gentleman’s club, didn’t go in. Walked past Mr. Beef, which is supposed to be the restaurant in the tv show The Bear. A very long line of people waiting to get in. Went to the Green Door Tavern next to it.

 

Korean Art Gallery

Went on a curator led tour of the new Korean Art Gallery at the AIC. It was a nice private tour with loads of history and personal anecdotes.
