We had a great week in Chicago! This will be a quick installment and then we will probably be off the radar for a bit. This coming week we will be in a small town: Napoleon, Ohio. We are on our way to Marietta to meet up with our two oldest kids, their families, and other various family members for an early Christmas celebration.

This week we had a blast doing daily outings. We went back to the House of Blues, which is a great place for some live music and a tasty bite. We went twice to the Den Theater. We saw a one-man show called “Charles Dickens Begrudgingly Performs ‘A Christmas Carol’ Again” and we also saw two Colombian comedians. Both were fun. We spent hours at the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry and we especially enjoyed the special exhibit about tech in the James Bond films. We ate tacos, more Mexican food, & Egyptian food. We attempted to have Raclette (ooey gooey cheese on a piece of bread) at the Christmas Market, but the line was laughably long, so we skipped it. We also did a day trip to Milwaukee. We wandered around town, ate bratwursts, and bought a lot of cheese. What more do you do in Wisconsin?

It’s been a great week and we enjoyed it a lot. We really can’t wait to get all six grandkids together for the first time. Have a good one!

After a whole month in alpine bliss, we packed things up and moved out of the canyon. We spent a busy weekend working on some projects at Margaret’s place in Centerville and having one more super fun Mueller family dinner. Then we filled the car with a few things and drove north and west for a change of scenery.

All good things (and bad things, I will add) come to an end. We thoroughly enjoyed our month at Solitude in Big Cottonwood Canyon, but we are moving on to the next adventure. We have moved back to Centerville for a few days to regroup and repack and then we are hitting the road!
