Just a Short Intro - Chicago
Just a Short Intro

In the title, I laid a pretty heavy claim down. I am sure plenty of New Yorkers, Bostonians, and every other big city, except LA where everyone is indignent will disagree.

I think Chicago is the best big city in America. It will take me quite a while to prove this point through my pages, but hopefully after all is said and done, you will come to the same conclusion!

Thanks for stopping by, and for now, this is all just a work in progress.

    I'd love to go to Chicago, especially Wrigley Field. I saw the Cubs at Houston this year, which was my first live MLB game. I enjoyed reading your pages.
