It’s unseasonably wonderful for mid-August in Chicago. It’s also the weekend of the Air and Water Show. I suspect the lake front will be extra crowded this weekend with people watching the Blue Angels do their routine. If you’ve never had a chance to see fighter jets flying over the lake it’s pretty amazing. It’s worth coming into the city at least once to witness the event. Seeing F-18s flying together in tight formations against the backdrop of the Chicago skyline and the lake is just plain cool.
