Well, it has been 5 years since our first date and since Katie and I moved to Illinois. We couldn't be happier! So, of course, John and I celebrated by going back to the place we met on our first date - Buckingham Fountain! We ended up here after about eight hours of wandering around downtown and at Navy Pier. Here are some of the pictures we took - in no particular order.
Buckingham Fountain, much as it was the night we met.
This is the fountain out in front of Navy Pier - Looks pretty cool at night!
This is the Windy, a masted ship we took a little cruise out onto Lake Michigan.
This is my salty sea dog and love of my life!
This is Navy Pier from Lake Michigan near the dock.
Who are those wacky dwarfs in the mirror??
Near the Yacht Club along Lakeshore Drive.
Stormy clouds over the city in the late afternoon - the clouds were amazing!
A very very territorial seagull we met.
A little sparrow that picked up the light perfectly.
The Windy out on Lake Michigan near the lighthouse.
The clouds over the city at sunset.
John at the fountain at Fourth Presbyterian Church - a gorgeous courtyard!
The Watertower with the Handcock as a backdrop.
Who knew I owned a greasy spoon in the city!
Awesome stained glass - there were about a million more in there too!
