While some dream of endless sandy shorelines and others long for thriving metropolises, visions of ivy-covered brick walls have always danced in my mind.

Perhaps dreaming and longing are too strong, but I'm a Chicago Cubs fan, always have been and most likely always will be. Despite that, Friday will be my first sojourn to the Windy City and my first trip to the "friendly confines" of historic Wrigley Field.
