It's Goodbye For Now To Chicago....

Every goodbye makes the next hello closer.

Getting very cold for us now here in Chicago and even though we love being here we hate the cold even more.  We have had a wonderful summer here in Chicago and now it's time to go back to Florida and the warmth.

It took us over an hour to get the tickets because there were a few complications to get Brutus together with us on the same flight....and his round trip cost more than ours (ha!ha!)....Arvid even said that in the future he will just buy an extra seat for Brutus so that we can have the entire row to ourselves.....  Finally we have everything all set.  Leaving in less than week.

This gives us more time to look also for a place in Florida be it a house or a condo.   Very difficult to do so while living somewhere else.....

I am sad yet OK with it because I don't like the cold much and we have witnessed a few cold days already and it is only going to get worse.  The few days we have left we will be making the most of.... and going to many of our favorite places for the last time this year.

We have done so much here in Chicago and we have had so much fun.  We really love this city and cannot wait to be back here next year...we already have our tickets for our return trip.

We have met some wonderful people......Brutus has had the opportunity of also being with kind and caring people when we were away...to all of you thank you and we will be seeing you again next year....

Now to begin the packing process and to take care of a few things before we leave.....

Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.

until next time...
