Childhood favorite

I lived in Chicago during my elementary and middle-school years. A favorite summertime activity was visiting Buckingham Fountain, in Grant Park on the lake front. When we get back into the city, we try to get down to the fountain at least once during the summer. We packed a picnic and had lunch here before heading over the to theater.
