Chicago Day 2

Day two of Chicago has included so much starting with a trip via L train to Wrigley Field to watch the Cubs play the Marlins. The train was packed and the feeling of sardines came to mind for the 15 minute trip from the station near the Hotel to the field. Once at the shrine called Wrigley field we entered the seating area and were in awe that this field nearly 100 years old seemed to take us back to that era if only for a moment.

The game started and I had taken a few pictures of the field and the surroundings and was so much in awe the game was inconsequential even though my favorite player thatbI spoke of highly to Terria before the gsme started, Mike Stanton then went on to hit two long Homeruns to prove my point, the Cub fans were very good and stayed to the end of an 11-3 game and they are die hard loyal fans fillingnthis stadium with a team thats 20 games below 500. The game ends and we rush to the L train depot and this is where it gers really interesting

we board the train that had too many people on it already and added 75 more, how the hell was I going to make it with some strangers armpit in my ear and mine in somebody elses face but I managed to make it without killing anyobody and got out and. Took a huge breath and felt like I was liberated from a Sardine can. The half mile walk back to the hotel from the station was a welcomed event and strething the legs a little felt good.

Tonight we are relaxing and getting amped up for the 4 hour drive to Detroit in the morning, catching the 105 Tigers white sox game. Hope to getbthere around 1030 or so and drive a little bit in Detroit and take some good pictures of the area and then head to the game and enjoy another game and another great experience together with Terria. After the game we are headed for a nice Dinner and then head towards Soutg end and the city which houses the University of Notre Dame. We will then t ake a tour of the campus and some more pictures of the the College I always wanted to attend and play for.

Then we make a quick detour towards Indianapolis for more site seeing,heading back to Chicago on Monday to do some city tours via the double decker bus,so touristy but a good way to ge a rundown of the city and things that we. Dont know about the windy city. so more pictures incoming and hope to see everything that we want to see. More things as they happen......A very good time. For sure
