chicago policy review

Yesterday afternoon's Launch Party marked the end of my time as the Executive Editor of the Chicago Policy Review. Boy is that a relief!

This year's edition is great (nevermind that I am slightly biased), and went off without a hitch. Or not many, anyway. Below are CJ, the Editor-in-Chief, and I with the latest issue. Oh, and you'll all probably appreciate that in his opening remarks, CJ referred to me as a prettier Dick Cheney. I'm taking that as a compliment, since he's a Republican.

Franklin, NC

We got into Franklin North Carolina last night after 24 miles. Stacy and I are staying at a hotel here resting our wet feet and getting some good rest in a hotel room. I have updated the first 2 days of our trip and i'm sending Tutu the rest of our days today.

Wes and Stacy

Cubs!

It's been a rainy few days here in Chicago, but we still managed to get in 5 innings of baseball up at Wrigley Field last night. Nevermind that it was a Tuesday night game during the penultimate week of school -- we had a blast! 

 


I'm not sure what the rules are on rescheduling (we didn't get rainchecks when we left), but Cubs were up when they called it for rain. In fact, it was a pretty great game. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate.
