Summa-summa-summertime

Chicago is lovely in the summertime. Just walking down the street, feeling the sun’s warm rays on my face, the slightly humid wind on my skin, makes me wish I lived someplace where the weather was like this all the time. But the city itself is something to see also… flowers, sprinklers everywhere, birds chirping, teenagers running around screaming monosyllabic nonsense… there is nothing quite like it. Pick a day this summer and, with a friend, go wade hip-deep in Lake Michigan, fully clothed. Then get yelled at by the lifeguard in the rowboat for not wading close enough to the rowboat. There is nothing quite like it.
