I write to you at 4 a.m. on Sunday from my friend Mahoney's kickass condo. I am sipping a delightful margarita and we are playing a game called Dirty Minds and let me tell you...it is funny. Quote of the night: "But a shoe can be long and supple"...(says The Boyfriend)....'nuff said! Good times! We are planning on staying awake for another hour so we can walk down to Lake Michigan and watch the sunrise.
This evening was spent with myself, Mahoney and The Boyfriend dining atop the 95th floor of the John Hancock building (decadent!) viewing the entire Chicago area. We ate beef filets with red wine, garlic potatoes, prosciutto and fresh mozzarella with pesto, and amazing dirty martinis! Oh - and that bottle of Italian wine (chao - Geelite!).
The PETTY CONCERT WAS AMAZING. I have officially seen Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers 3 times in Milwaukee and it was the best show by far! He played only one new song with the rest being oldies.
- Free Falling
- American Girl (joined by Eddie Vedder)
- Handle With Care (Traveling Wilburys tune)
- Keep On Rocking In The Free World (Neil Young cover - my fave!)
- Honey Bee
- You Wreck Me
- You Don't Know How It Feels
- Good To Be King
- Won't Back Down
- Listen To Her Heart
- Mary Jane's Last Dance
- The Waiting (with Eddie again!)
- Don't Come Around Here No More
There were so many good ones - these are the ones I remember!
Pearl Jam was kickass too, playing such awesome tunes as Daughter, Elderly Woman...., Alive, Evenflow, Jeremy, etc. They sounded amazing.
Well, pictures to come...I'm being rushed out the door to go catch that Chicago sunrise...
Have a great 4th!
Love, kristen
p.s. Shout out to tracie who is caring for our babies while we are away. They are SO loving her right now!

Sweet! By the way, our Tracie ran 6 fantastic miles on Sunday. She was running faster at the end than the beginning. Ask her about it! Come home soon so I can get the futon out of my back bedroom! And did you get my message about the kiln?
Hey RGFred, I did get your message and haven't really had a chance to talk to Tim much about it, but I think we're super interested, as we'll be driving home to New England at the end of this month and can likely bring it with us!
Congrats, tracie!!!
