This weekend I took a quick trip up to Chicago to visit my brother and his girlfriend Andrea in their new abode. I probably could have spent the entire weekend in their apartment building without leaving and still felt like I got a satisfactory Chicago experience - their gorgeous (brand new) building is in the heart of the city with amenities you wouldn't believe. The pool on the 8th floor is surrounded by views of the Chicago skyline (which is one of my favorite skylines ever) and is complete with cabanas, lounge chairs, a hot tub, little couches and 6 grills (what?!). Just inside from the pool is a gym that is basically a mini-YMCA with all the new and updated equipment, plus a little coffee bar and a basketball court. Oh, don't let me forget the actual movie theater - with huge plush leather seats - around the corner from the work out rooms that plays movies all day and that you can rent out for an evening with your friends for *free*.
If I did spend the entire weekend in the building, however, that would have left me with a boring blog post indeed. Thankfully, Ian and Andi had an awesome weekend planned out for us complete with a trip to Wrigleyville, a stop at Lincoln Fest and a gorgeous walk through downtown to Navy Pier.
hey one of me! Thanks Dakota
you'd never know just by looking at these guys that they have great self esteem ;)
this is what I'm talking about...why would anyone ever leave this place?
