Thursday: Arrive in a blaze of glory that morning; boat tour around town (motorized not paddle as someone suggested); dinner at Frontera Grill
Rick BaylessFriday: Girls shop Michigan Avenue and have tea at The Drake; boys commit random acts of mayhem as well as possibly visiting The Publican and Hot Doug's; dinner at the home of some friends/associates of my in-laws (I think the term "associates" smacks of mob affiliation. It is Chicago after all.)
Tony waits for his Hot Doug
Getting fancy at The DrakeSaturday: Museums and/or Aquarium plus Frank Lloyd Wright ogling; dinner at Graham Elliot (who, appropriately enough, has Sufjan's Come On! Feel the Illinois! playing on his website)
Whistler
Seurat
Van Rijn
Shedd Aquarium gets cute
Graham Elliot Bowles is my age... except he's done something with his life.Sunday: Wrigleyville wandering; Cubs Game; pizza at Gino's East (?) for dinner; partying with Vince Vaughn
Bar in Wrigleyville where I'll be swilling O'Doule's. Sad face.
Go Cubbies.

Well, it IS important to have goals.
I'm gettin' jiggy just reading the itinerary. That's gonna be an awesome trip.
"Getting jiggy" is this year's "going buck wild."
Frontera Grill---definitely a good call. You might want to consider adding Goose Island Brewery to your list. We're going to try to eat there this week-end when we're in the Windy City and will let you know if it's a "must do".
Bonnie, thanks for the suggestion! I think Carter or someone mentioned Goose Island at some point, but I think we forgot about it. Definitely let us know if we should go!
My husband is OBSESSED with Rick Bayless! We watch his show on PBS every Saturday. His daughter adds entertainment value. Cannot wait to hear!
How are you feeling?!?!??!?!! Hugs to the belly containing wee woo!
