Summer in Chi-town

Chicago's spring has been pretty gross. I swear that we have had a worse spring than winter. After 10 weeks of soccer and running, I've only had to wear sunscreen once---and that was yesterday (my poor, delicate, sun-starved skin still got burned).

But once the sun comes out and buildings warm up, Chicago in the summer just can't be beat.

Here are some of my views from just two days in the sun:

Sunday was one of those days where everything looked gorgeous, even my alien-like apartment building

My apartment may be empty, but it's now great for tanning!
