Blues Fest, Rib Fest and Shakespeare





It was a busy weekend! Saturday I met up with Erin and we headed over to the printers row book fair, where we browsed through books, new and old. We each bought something, so it was worth the trip. We then went to Blues Fest in Grant Park. It was such a nice day, so we grabbed a couple beers and sat on the grass to listen to the music. We were there a few hours, and then headed off to catch the train home. As soon as we got on the train there was a down pour of rain. Some how we escaped it! Yay.
Next, I went home to change and then met up with Andrea to go see Jimmyzzzz in 'The Comedy of Errors' at Chicago Shakespear...he did such a good job. Yeah Jimmyzzz!!!
Sunday started off to be another nice day and we were gearing up for Rib Fest '08 when suddenly a wild thunder and lightening storm swept through Chicago - ALMOST dashing the hopes of Andrea and I to devour our own weight in Ribs. Ah. But, we're on to this Chicago weather and how it changes every 5 minutes, so we scurried over there anyway only to have a clear blue sky and sun by the time we arrived. We ate many delicious ribs, and had a deep fried snicker. I know! Sorry, no pictures because I forgot my camera. Andrea had hers, but when I asked her later why she didn't take any pictures, she just lifted up her hands and shrugged. I don't think she cares about my blog. So, here's some stock photos to give you the idea.
