The pool is open...so Summer is officially here Chicago! Soak it all in!

Howl at the Moon 5k, Kingman, AZ - state #18. Fun run in the desert at night. Most important instruction given: If you hear rattles run the other way. WHAT? SNAKES? Incentive to keep moving!

Delayed for 4.5 hrs and still no word on a 1st officer. Apparently the last one was stuck in Duluth- meachanical issue. The next sub was actually scheduled for time off. What other biz survives this kind of incompetence? We s/b compensated.#UnitedAirlines #UnitedAirlinesfails

Didn't see this coming...thank you Coach Q! #gratefulfan #blackhawks usatoday.com/story/sports/n…

Reminiscing a bit on my run - 8 yrs ago yesterday I ran my first big "race" - JP Morgan Chase Challenge with Navistar. Never thought I'd run in anything like this but thanks to a push from some Navistar folks I started running & haven't stopped yet. Grateful for the push in 2013.

Trouble getting into the Sox vs. Astros tonight. Crazy long lines to park and get in. Already missed over an inning and not close to the gate. #whitesox #guaranteedratefield #whatamess

Much better now...grilled polish and back to back dingers! #GoSox

Treated to a great performance by an 88 yr old Grand Ole Opry Member Jesse McReynolds-a mandolin picker-at The Station Inn in Nashville.

A perfect night for a stroll along the best waterfront, with the best skyline, anywhere! #chicagoskyline

Great October night in Chicago...with a MNF bonus: the "switch to Mitch"! #ChicagoBears

Great half-time performance by the Marian Catholic Band...Star Wars take two! Shout out to my niece Sarah...loved it!!! #MarianCatholicBand

Enjoying a great weekend in East Lansing with my wonderful daughter. #michiganstate

And, an argument can be made that he’s underpaid, especially if you’re a Bama fan.

November 27th, 8:00 p.m., in Chicago...and it's 55 degrees. Just had to fire up the grill! Upside of global warming? Hmmm?

Izzo worked very hard for this one. Great game, great day! #GoGreen

How do I know who I am until I see what I do? Something to noodle on a bit. Paraphrased E.M. Forster quote.

Waiting to take the "plunge" (Chicago Polar Plunge)...and the Mount Carmel football team was right behind me in line - with new head coach Jordan Lynch - what timing. #SpecialOlympics #MountCarmel #ChicagoPolarPlunge

Exhilirating! Ok, maybe just really, really cold!!! Thanks for all the support for this great cause. Along with 5,000 other participants over $1.5 million was raised for Special Olympics Chicago. Well done Chicago! #polarplungechicago #specialolympicschicago
