Chicago: Part 3
Cedar Point
If you know me well, you know that i love any kind of amusement park. So, going to this huge amusement park in Ohio, on an island.... can we say awesome! It was really cold and really crowded, but the rides and the funnel cake made up for it! and the whole time i was there, i kept thinking...." i cant believe im in OHIO!" i guess i just thought Ohio was going to be one of those states that i was never going to visit, and i was OK with that. But life has its surprises and this was a good one!
Abe, me , Melinda, and Brooks. We just got off this really cheesy ride, i cant even explain it, your just going to have to trust me on this one.

Chicago: Part 1
South Bend/Norte Dame
This is where our Trip began! We met up with our friends Drew, Jenny and their son Kaden, and also Brookes and Melinda in South Bend, Indiana
(Just as a side note, Abe, Drew and Brooks have been best friends since the second grade!)

Abe lighting a candle at the Grotto.
The Grotto is a replica of the famed French shrine where the Blessed Virgin appeared to Saint Bernadette. Thousands visit the Notre Dame shrine each year to pray and light candles.

Drew is getting his MBA at Norte Dame and we got a tour of campus, which included the 128 year-old main building with the gilded golden dome, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart Cathedral, and touch-down Jesus!

Tucson!
Iron and Wine/Swell Season
Over the weekend we went to Tucson to see Iron and Wine and The Swell Season with our good friends Taylor and Meg Beckstead!
The night we got there we ate at this resturant called Zinburger. They had really good turkey burgers and zucchini fries.
This is one wall of the girls bathroom that i thought was kind of cool..in a creepy kind of way
The concert was Amazing! Rialto is a very good venue and both artist are very talented. We were also lucky enough to have Joey Burns from Calexico play with both Iron and Wine and the Swell Season.
this is a video of the Swell Season(sorry for the poor quality)

Third time is not the charm!
The first time i tried to see the band Sigur Ros, Abe had a friend that did the booking for the depot and i specifically asked her to get sigur ros to come to Salt Lake. So, after she did some major convincing, Sigur Ros made an extra tour date in Salt Lake. I was so excited until i found out i would be a week short of turning 21 to this 21 and older show. They wouldn't let me in. The Second time i tried to see Sigur Ros, me and my roommates decided we were going to go to Denver to see them at the paramount theater. But, on the way there we hit some black ice and crashed the car repeatedly into the snow bank.. obviously after that, the concert was out the question. Then today, i found out that they are playing tomorrow?! Here! At the Marquee theater! How did i not know about this! i feel so out of the loop! Now the show is sold out and this will be the third time i will be missing them. I feel like this one could of been prevented! (sigh.)
