Today

Had the boys downtown today, watching the Blackhawks and the Stanley Cup go by. Humid and hot as hell, but I'd prepared for it, had plenty of water for the boys, and they enjoyed themselves. Huge number of people there -- the estimates are about 2 million people turned up, and I believe it, as it was a massive turnout. The boys had a good time, and it was fun to see so many people out, a very Chicago moment. I snapped a bunch of pix.
