Spent considerable time there in my early 20s and would live there except for two things---my husband's job is here, and I HATE the winters. Otherwise it's a great place with wonderful people and wonderful places to go, And that's not even to mention the great food.

Keep on rockin' and resisting, Chicago! We are with you 100%!
