Glenview in a Day

A ten hour layover in Chicago afforded me the opportunity to spend a day in my hometown suburb of Glenview, IL. What does one do when one has to cram all the best things of this town into one day?

1. Have tea time with Nanny and talk about the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

2. Entice your dogs with some tunes on the keys.

3. Eat a whole bowl of M&M's.

4. Giordano's deep dish pizza. Hands down best in Chicagoland.

5. Chocolate cake.

6. Homer's mint chip ice cream.

7. Dairy Bar. Chocolate dipped in milk chocolate.

8. Dip my toes in the waters of the great Lake Michigan.

9. Lay on the sandy beach.

10. Swap international travel stories with Jenny.

(11. Hang out with Bobby McGee, but not this time because he had better things to do...like inspiring the youth of America.)
