Just the two of us in Chicago!

We are now in Chicago on the 34th floor of the Sheraton Chicago Hotel and Towers. Tonight we are going to Shula's America's Steak House here at the hotel. Today we drove down to Chicago from Milwaukee. We stopped in Racine, WI to have lunch or should I say Sunday Brunch on Lake Michigan. It was beautiful but very windy on the lake. We will post pictures of us together when we get home. On Lake Michigan in Racine really looked like it was on the ocean--with sailboats, lighthouses, fog, sea gulls and the works. It was beautiful. We saw a bunch of new condos going up and the area is being built up big time. We'll have to come back and see it again sometime. We then followed a road along the Lake south toward Chicago. We drove by the Chicago Temple in Glenview. It was all locked up tight because it was Sunday--General Conference Sunday actually. It is such a beautiful building--as all the temples are. We then returned our Toyota Prius downtown Chicago. The Prius was an awesome car! Other than it being a little small and a little bumpy, it was a great car. We got 56mpg and it was fun to drive. We then walked about 2 blocks or so in downtown Chicago to our hotel. Now we are getting ready to head to the Club Level for evening appetizers then off to dinner.
