After the reunion, we headed to Chicago and got to have an amazing Portillo's lunch with Gramma Z at her place. It was a big gathering and Gramma was a great hostess. Owen was put on the table, per tradition, and examined. Fortunately, he was getting over being sick, so he passed.
We also played cards. Donkey was particularly hilarious and borderline dangerous. Jason was clawed by Mom and Gramma made sure Dad kept up the pace.
We also spent a day in the city, walking all over the place. Zach had not been to Chicago before, and we had the best tour guide possible since Dad "built" the city. We got to see "the bean," Buckingham Fountain, and the Art Institute, among other things.
We ate at Bubba Gumps on Navy Pier, and Zach and I ran to the end of the Pier. We had to sprint back in order to make the water taxi. Zach gave me a piggy back ride and sprinted back. Don't worry, my Dad had the baby at the time.
We spent one more night in a hotel and said bye to Gramma and then Mom and Dad in the morning. Then we were on the road again.
