Last week we took a drive in the car and left the motor home in Tomahawk Wi. We went to Oswego Illinois and then to Munster Indiana and then into Chicago. We were in Oswego Il. when we drove past this restaurant. Of course we had to stop for lunch. Chapala, Mexico is where we live.
The food was great and the people that run the restaurant are from Guadalajara.
We visited with Belinda's niece and her family as well as several friends. Munster Indiana is where we were living before retirement.

This bar is where Belinda and Roy met 9 years ago. We visited with old friends.

You can see we were having fun.

Another day we met up with some of belinda's friends for wings. The wings at Cheers in Munster In. are the best.

Driving along lake shore drive in Chicago.

We went up to Chicago to visit Belinda's friend Sue's son. He lives on the 38th floor on Clark St. in Chicago. The view of the skyline in Chicago was spectacular.

Things look much better since the high rise public housing have been torn down. They would be in this picture.

Flowers like this are common around Chicago at this time of year.

One of the many parks that we could see from Steve's apartment.

After dinner in Chicago, one last drink.

By the rooftop pool.


Not the same as the view from the pool in El Parque where we live.
We are headed back to Wisconsin, and the next blog will most likely be from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
