Happy Fourth!
We enjoyed Chicago's big lakefront fireworks show from Riva on Navy Pier. Kudos to Jeanne for getting us a reservation on one of their busiest nights of the year. The fireworks started a little before 9:30pm...it was pretty close to 10:00pm before we actually ate. They had lots of great choices. As good as a steak sounded, I went with the Swordfish Oscar instead. Probably a smart move at that late hour.
I have the day off today. It's nice to have a three day weekend. Cisco Cotto and Jennifer Keiper staffed the newsroom today. Great job by Jen today on some breaking news...confirming a tip that Naperville Ribfest was being evacuated due to severe weather...and getting it on the air as it was happening! Excellent work!
Pretty lazy day today...but I did have an awesome stint on the treadmill. Maybe it's my imagination, but those minutes sure seemed to fly by faster with my new iPod. I mean, who wouldn't roll along at a fast pace with Saturday Night by the Bay City Rollers pounding in their ears!
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y...Night! : )
