I moved from Logan Square when the drive bys were right next to my coach house. I reside in Bartlett right now, but my friend is putting her town house on the market in the next month or 2 after being in it 24 years. Bartlett is a wonderful town to live in. I'm a 3 block walk to to the Metra train that goes downtown. I believe I'm heading out to Minneapolis for the next year and a half. If you choose WI, look in Milwaukee. Amtrak is a 90 minute ride to Chicago.

Grew up a Hoosier but consider myself a Chicagoan (lived there several times over past 40 years). I call Chicago home.

In Chicago with nothing to do?
Perhaps you still have time to, capture the sunrise on 2019's shortest day from 1,030 feet above Chicago. 360 CHICAGO Observation Deck is hosting their fourth-annual Winter Solstice InstaMeet on December 21st.
Your ticket grants you exclusive early access to the observation deck and TILT (both normally open at 9 AM) PLUS readmission throughout the day. Come back for sunset! Tripods are allowed ad encouraged! |

Join the Sweds.........
Andersonville loves to celebrate the neighborhood's roots as a community of Swedish immigrants. The annual Hygge Fest is another event that embraces the Scandinavian aesthetic. Named after a Danish term that means "cozy," the two-day event sends attendees to local businesses, where they'll find sales, tastings and special events. The weekend kicks off with a Pajama Fun Run, which takes off from Elixir Andersonville at 8:30am on Saturday, February 1.
A Coffee & Hot Cocoa Crawl allows visitors to enjoy warm beverages at a variety of local destinations. You can also stop by businesses like Early to Bed, Foursided and Uncharted Books to take advantage of sales throughout the weekend. |

IF you're not near a Fresh Thyme Market I suppose you could go to one of the other 9 they selected for a bird.......Cermak Fresh Market, Caputo's, Plum Market, Gene's Sausage Shop, Costco, Mariano's, Jewel-Osco, Whole Foods, or Tony's Fresh Market....

I don't live there but I often visit the city.... If you're looking for places to go and suggestions of things to do, check out posts in the "if you're ever there go here" thread. A lot of the places I discovered on my own but a few places were introduced to me by my traveling companion who lives there in the Windy City. |
