Chicago

Alex and I made a trip to Chicago for a weekend to attend our friends engagement party. The trip was short, but we were able to get some sight seeing in, along with shopping and of course good eats. Alex was not leaving Chicago until he got a Chicago style hot dog and all I wanted was a piece of Chicago style pizza.

Black Keys Concert

We had the pleasure to attend an amazing concert this summer by the Black Keys. The concert was in downtown Indianapolis on the river front. Alex and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, I even played the air guitar lol a first for Alex to see of me. Our friend Luke attended the concert with us, it was great to see him. It you have not checked out tunes from the Black Keys before I highly recommend it, they are an amazing band!!

Wilderness State Park/ Camping/ Road Biking Trip

For Memorial weekend Alex and I went up to Wilderness State park. We had a GREAT time. The weather was quite cold but to be expected for Michigan. We enjoyed  two days and three nights of camping under the stars. We packed our road bikes with us for the trip and took a day trip down the shore line of Lake Michigan through the Tunnel of Trees to Harbor Springs. It was a beautiful trip and our first day trip on our new road bikes that we got for our birthday! We also took a trip to Mackinaw City on our bikes to see the bridge and re visit the first place we went on vacation together last summer. It was a wonderful start to a summer full of adventures.

Tiger Games

The summer would not be complete without baseball. Alex and I took a couple trips to see our Detroit tigers. Tiger games are always enjoyable to go to, the atmosphere and sounds of the park along with cold beer and peanuts!
