Well, we're back from Chicago, a little bit wetter, but no worse for the wear. The walk started off decently, the weather was overcast and chilly, but not too bad...
And then the craziness started...Within about 10 yards of starting it started raining, but not constantly, just off and on. And when it did rain, it was hard. So, we made it through about 4 miles of the walk with rain off and on, when all of the sudden, the sky opened up and let loose with a monsoon. It was crazy! Rain was coming at us from all sides, even from the ground! We didn't manage to finish the whole walk, because I was a little worried about keeping Aiden out in the cold and rain too long, he doesn't need to get that cold in his little body. So, we caught a cab, and went back to Rachel's apartment to dry off and get some brunch. Overall, it was fun though, Rachel Katie and I got to talk and enjoy ourselves despite the rain, and rain or no rain, the March of Dimes got our money anyway. It was a good weekend in Chicago with my sister, and the walk was interesting. Thanks to all who donated money to the cause this year, and start saving for next year, I'll be around asking for donations again!
