How MrG Spent His Summer - August

MrG and PoMonkey were fortunate enough to have several people travel to Chicago and see them in August. They got to do a bunch of the touristy stuff in Chicago—Signature Room in the Hancock, boat tour of the Chicago River and Lake Michigan, Navy Pier, Michigan Avenue shopping, and more. We went to a Cubs game and while they lost, the bus ride to and from Wrigley Field passed through one of the, um, more colorful neighborhoods in Chicago. Saw the Bourne Ultimatum and Wicked (reviews forthcoming). Work/travel wise, MrG infiltrated attended the YearlyKos convention, which was held here in the Windy City. On the Saturday of the convention he saw all of the leading democratic presidential candidates in person. And yes, her voice is the like that in person too.
