Today, I drove from Chicago, to Blue Lake, MI, back to Chicago. In between, I<br>was able to hear James' concert. Given it was July 4, the evening was spent<br>with David and Laura, at her wonderful neighbor's place. James was sick today,<br>making him tired and giving him a scary sounding cough (especially in these<br>post COVID days.) As the sun set, we walked to the Chicago lakeshore drive and<br>watched people and fireworks. Interestingly, there were no city-sponsored<br>fireworks tonight, only private party fireworks.
