Chicago- Wrigley Tour

After the family vacation in Sheboygan, Doug, and I (Jeff too) headed to Chicago.  Aiden went to Cedar Falls with Grandma and Grandpa Goodenbour for a few days.  The trip was Doug and I's anniversary presents to each other (3 years June 27).  We had a very packed 3 days.  On Thursday (the day we arrived) we went on a tour Wrigley Stadium.  We got in town a little early, so we decided to grab lunch.  After an accidental detour- we discovered Hot Dougs!  Jeff had heard good things, so we decided to stop there.

The line waiting just to get in to the restaurant.


Doug and Jeff, almost to the door!

On to the tour at Wrigley. Very cool and I highly recommend it- even if you aren't a Cubs fan.  It was a lot of walking (and stair climbing), but definitely worth it.



Doug from the press box. 

What a view!!  The #10 was mowed into the field in honor of Ron Santo being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

The famous organ you hear.

Heading down from the press box.

A picture of the men installing the famous ivy.  They were given 72 hours to get the whole field done- can you imagine?!?

In the clubhouse- yep, that's actually their stuff.


In the dugout.  I even spit to make it more authentic- just kidding, but I should have.
