Adult Swim

Saturday night was an adults night out. Kristen and I attended an outdoor concert at Ravinia Park just north of Chicago. Joining two other couples (each with two kids and one with a third on the way!), we attend a concert by the band BoDeans.

The name might not be familiar, but their big claim to fame was the song used in the opening credits for the show Party of Five. My least favorite song! Anyway...the BoDeans play Ravinia every year and I think we've now seem them five of the last six years.

It is evenings like this why we moved back to the city. We rode the Metra with a cooler and bag and in 40 minutes were dropped off at the gate of the park. We all brought food and beverage and with the park opening more than two hours before the performance, adult conversation and a night away from all the kids was enjoyed thoroughly!

And hats off to our friend Emily. She was in attendance despite being eight months pregnant!
