Chicago is my kind of town.

Nicole and at Chicago's famous Billy Goat Tavern.

What a day we had in downtown Chicago. A beer at the Billy Goat. Shopping on the Magnificent Mile along Michigan Avenue. Lunch at Rosebud's on Rush. Cocktails at Cindy's. An amazing rooftop bar at The Chicago Athletic Club. Then laughter and good times at Riley's Gathering Place in Elmhurst.

One of the greatest blessings in my life is my friends. Love you all!!!

Sunday Family and Friends Get Together

After a love and fun filled wedding day for my nephew Danny and his new bride Brianne. My sister Leanne and brother in law Dan were kind enough to host a party at their house. My old friends from the loading dock Ken and Louie came by. So did Joey and Carrie Liberio. Eddie and Claudia DeAnda, and the Rileys Susie, Stevie and Debbie, and Jimmy and Sue. Did my heart a world of good to see you all.

Two of my favorites Jimmy Riley and Eddie DeAnda
