8th Annual Taste of the Arts Festival

Chicago-- Newest Inductee to Rock n Roll's Hall of Fame!

49 years! I can't believe my all-time favorite rock band, Chicago, has been around nearly five decades!

I’ve been a fan since the early 1970s when they had so many of my favorite Top Ten hits: "Make Me Smile," "25, or 6 to 4", "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" and "Beginnings," "Saturday In The Park", "Feelin' Stronger Every Day," and “Just You 'N Me," "(I've Been) Searchin' So Long," "Call On Me," and "Wishing You Were Here".

Greek Fest 2016

Young Greek dancers swayed and shouted encouragement to each other as they stepped through intricate Greek line dances in unison. Holding hands, sometimes up, sometimes down, they tapped their toes which of course, made mine tap too!
