Jess and I left Pentwater, MI because Brad's dad was coming up to visit, and we decided that it would be fun to go to Chicago since neither one of us had ever been. Well....
For starters, driving in the city was crazy! Driving through downtown wasn't all that bad, it was just trying to navigate the city, trying to find the fastest route- which there are none! We spent like 2 hours just trying to travel about 15 miles. Will I ever go back? Most likely not.
Our first experience was at Lincoln Park where we witnessed this girl slamming on her horn at some guy, so he gets out his car, standing about 6'4, 230lbs, and starts cussing her out. They argued cussing at each other for about 1 minute; stupid girl... stupid city.
We ended up making our way in the evening to see the White Sox play the Twins, that was fun! The White Sox played really well, not to mention the home run. Parking was fun though, not. It was going to cost us $23 to park! So we both said screw that, was we were trying to make our way out of the area this guy is like "I got parking here, follow me! You are luck you are white dude", haha, so we ended up parking for $13 down some back ghetto alley. Yes, I was scared for me life. Thankfully I drive a Corolla, no one wants to steal those rims! My car was safe when we got back, had all its wheels...
Jess wanted us to get some scalped tickets, the guy that hooked us up with parking told us to go to "Big John"... after the shady parking job I definitely wasn't about to take that risk! The game was a lot of fun though!
Here are some pictures from the drive home take in Indiana.... Enjoy
So glad to be home! Still praying and waiting for a job, but I am certainly thankful for the time I got to venture out of Lynchburg; total of 2100 miles.
