A View from Grant Park

I maintain (politics aside) that Chicago is the greatest city in the world to be in, in the summer.  I joke with my friends from time to time that summers here are the drug that makes the winters here worth it.  We just need to hold out for that one more fix of summer, and everything will be OK.  A view like this after a few hours of Steve Miller holding down the fort at the Taste of Chicago only serves to back me up.

God says hello.
