Bike ride



We never get many bike rides in mid-summer because it is so hot! Well we picked a great day to meet Uncle Steven and Aunt Ashley and their girls for some riding in Chicago along the lakefront. Tom Skilling announced that this day was going to be: meteorological perfection. It was. North breezes, sunny, 78 and clear views of skyline, lake . . it was absolutely gorgeous. We met near the Aquarium and biked to the Bird Sanctuary and the "waterfall" near McCormick place old building, then back north to some nice playgrounds for the kids: Daley Bi-Centennial plaza and Lake-Shore East I think they are called. Douwe and the girls had a great time on the bikes and off.
