Yesterday I was at work and started thinking about the summer. The more I thought about it, the more I got excited. The excitment was for both personal reasons and professional reasons. Last summer was really rough. Not only was I in Chicago without Adam, but it was also crazy at work. I knew Navy Pier was going to be it's own crazy animal, but I never expected to be there during the crazy time with only 1 assistant manager. That summer is in the past and now it is time to look forward to this summer.
I think my two assistants yesterday were a little freaked out about how I was beginning to plan. I spent so much time last summer at work that I didn't really get to enjoy the summer. I never went to the farmers market or the beach. I worked, went to Cubs games and slept. That's about it. This summer will be different. I will of course go to some more Cubs game, but I am also going to attempt to ride my bike to work. We will see how that goes. :-)
Adam is going to do a bike trip with his mom in June. It is called Ride the Rockies. It is a 3oo mile bike trip that takes place over 5 days. I won't be able to make the trip because of the craziness of the summer. My brother is getting married at the end of August so that will bring some excitement as well.

Did I ever tell you I went on a 3100 mile bike trip when I was a sophomore in HS? It was sponsored by Taylor University. We went from Indiana through Ohio,Pennsylvania, New York(at Niagara Falls). Then across Ontario to Port Huron, Michigan. Then up to the Macinac Bridge (they wouldn't let us ride our bikes across because it was very windy that day.) Then across the U.P. of Michigan, down through Wisconsin, Chicago, and back home. All of this in 31 days!!! That's averaging about 100 miles a day. Look up "Wandering Wheels" on the Web. It was run by a former pro football player/coach by the name of Bob Davenport.
