A Weekend in Chi-TownPosted by admin on May 16th, 2010

My parents, along with my brother and his girlfriend all came to visit us and we took a trip into Chicago yesterday to do some exploring and see Josh Ritter play at the Vic theater.

Me, Cassie, Matt and Amber

We also had the chance to see Cassie’s MFA art show at a gallery in the city.  It was a really great show in a beautiful gallery.  Here she is with our friend Ann at the gallery:

They are hard at work at the front table.

Josh was great, as always.  The sound at the Vic theater is fantastic, and his opening act, Joe Pug, was also really great.  We ended up taking a late train home and didn’t get back until about 2:30am, but it was well worth all of the travel.  It is funny for me to think about how few families actually find a musician who they all like to go see!


Cassie and I have some of the biggest changes in our lives coming up this summer and I can’t wait to talk more about it!  For now, I’m looking forward to some sunny days and our vacation to Galena next week!

These great photos were taken by my dad!
