We'll Root, We'll Root For The Cubbies, If They Don"t Win.....


I just love Chicago. I would never lived there but I love being in Chicago in the Spring/Summer/Fall. This time I was there for my Cousins bachelor party. My brother and some of his friends took me to a Cubs game. They were playing the Boston RedSox (whom I hate....because secretly Yankees are my 2nd favorite team). Wrigley field is the most awesome ball park in America. The 7th inning stretch is something you only can truly enjoy in person. Plus the Cubs beat the crap out of the RedSox.

What can I say about the food in Chicago. You have never had a polish until you had one in Chicago or Chicago style pizza. I could go on and on about the food. They say New York never sleeps, but Chicago is the same.

Food: Gino's East (best pizza in the world), Chicago Style Polish, french fries, homerun inn pizza, taste of Chicago (best shrimp)
Drinks: Oh course Budweiser (official beer of the Cubs)

Cabo Wabo


Been around the world and yah yah yah....well we know how the song goes; but I had never been south of the border. When Shawnna invited me there for her birthday, I jumped at the channce. Cabo San Lucas is a very pretty vacation town. Our hotel was nice. Went on a time share presentation to get some free tickets to a couple of cruises and dinner. The food in Cabo was pretty good and the drinks were good also. Can not beat some good Tequila. If you like Lobster, Cabo is the place to be. You can get a nice lobster meal for about $10 or less.

Site seeing in Cabo was really nice. Not really much to see but the beach and the resort areas, but town is very pretty. Really enjoyed spending Shawnna's birthday with her in Cabo.

Tidbit about Cabo

When you are out dining, most of the eateries and open (no walls). So you get a lot of streets vendors coming in to sale you flowers, chicklets, and all sorts of stuff. You understand that they are very poor, but it gets bothersome after awhile.

Food: Lobster, Tacos, Burritos
Drinks: Cerveza (beer) Corona, Tequila
