Expo Chicago

Got some complimentary tickets to Expo Chicago last weekend and had a nice day out with my girl at Navy Pier. We went on a guided tour, saw lots of art and had a nice lunch.

Eclipse Day

Made my way over to the lake today for the eclipse. We weren’t in the zone of totality but got pretty close.
Lots of people out observing the eclipse and enjoying the warm, sunny day.

Easter Egg Hunt

Our neighborhood had an Easter Egg hunt yesterday. We filled a dozen eggs with candy and went into the park to hide them. Three squirrels made off with three of the plastic eggs! Also I found and disposed of a dead squirrel corpse in the middle of the hunting grounds. Gross.
