Ever wonder what life would be like inside a snow globe? Me neither, but Mother Nature decided to show us anyway. A swirling snow descended on Chicago yesterday, so our afternoon walk became an afternoon arctic expedition. After just a few minutes outside Eko and I were both blanketed in snow The snow caused a …
We had a blustery, snowy Saturday here in Chicago and you could barely see a few feet in front of your face at times. In other words, it was perfect beach weather. Except the beach disappeared. In its place we found a frozen tundra Eko and his pal Riley were undeterred and bounded after each …
