UBER DRIVER

My Mom and her brother came to Chicago from New York this weekend for a wedding. I promised them both that I would be their personal uber driver during their 48 hour visit. Although I kept my promise, I still managed to get my walking accomplished as well.  On Friday when I picked them up at the airport, I walked 3 miles around O'Hare airport before I met them at the luggage carousel.  Friday afternoon we did some sightseeing, and while my guests rested before a Friday night party on a Chicago Party Boat, I had enough time to sneak in a seven mile walk before I had to don my uber hat again and drive them to the riverfront.  I spent the whole morning and afternoon with my Mom on Saturday. The high point of the day was watching The Thunderbird Jets as part of the Chicago Air and Water Show. We watched from the rooftop or our building.  

This photo was taken as these four jets flew directly over us on the 24th floor rooftop.

On Saturday night, I drove my Mom and my Uncle to the wedding which was about five miles from downtown (30 minutes with traffic) and since the parking lot seemed rather secure, I decided to park the car, and do my walking from that location. I dropped my guests off at 6:45PM and I picked them up at 11:45PM.  During that downtime, I managed a 17 mile walk, and I managed a quick healthy dinner at Mariano's.  Have I previously mentioned that I like to walk?  My hike was all over the to no place in particular, the one particularly nice spot I found was a short Canalport Riverwalk.

My favorite photo taken yesterday was me and my Mom in front of a Chicago store.  I can't say that I shop there often, but I do seem strangely attracted to the shop.

Does my Mom seem young or what? Couldn't we pass for brother and sister?
