June and July Updates

On Friday, June 26, 2009 we went to the Evergreen Park Library to see the Rock Cats in their Up Close and Purr-sonal tour. In theory, it seemed like a great idea. I would have to say that I'm a cat man. Maybe I was tired and cranky, but this show just didn't keep my attention. I appreciate that the Library held the show, but boy was it hard to see anything and the wait was a bit too long for my tastes. The cats were really cute though so I give it a Tynan 2 star.

My mom's birthday is July 2. I wanted to go to the Field Museum to show her the underground adventure, but Mom was hungry so we stopped by the Taste of Chicago. I liked the popcorn on a stick the best, and although it wasn't too crowded on a Thursday, the Taste wasn't really my thing. I dealt with it though because my mom digs it. The Field Museum however, ROCKS! which lands it a Tynan 5 Star Rating!

When we got home we had a really yummy Pistacho cake that Mom made herself of course.

We like to go to Calumet City's Freedom Eve on July 3 for Independence Day celebrations. It's not as big as Chicago's and that's part of the reason that we like it; but it is also very family friendly with activities for little guys like me and live music where I can show off my fancy footwork. Once again, a Tynan 5 Star Rating!
