Happy 181st Birthday, Chicago!

 

 

[courtesy https://www.imgrumweb.com]

Well now, what do we have here? Why, it’s the City of Chicago’s 181st birthday!  On March 4th, 1837, Chicago was incorporated as the city it is today.  I encourage you to plan a visit here if you’ve never seen it for yourself.

And for those who have been here, I daresay there would be no need to twist your arm for a return visit!

Beautiful, bold, energetic, eclectic, Chicago; I do love this city! Hhhhmmmm, but I also love cake; do you think this would be a brilliant excuse to go and buy one? I mean, in celebration of Chicago’s 181st birthday and all. *biggest grin I can muster*

So here’s to more deep dish pizza, Chicago Cubs winning another World Series (who woulda thunk it?), Lake Michigan sunrises, and architecture that is truly sublime.

Now, back to the cake…………………..
