THE CHICAGO IL REAL ESTATE MARKET, AND OTHER THINGS CHICAGO, FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF A LITTLE WHITE DOG!
Chicago's 26-miles of Beautiful Public Beaches, right on Lake Michigan, open for swimming on Friday, May 23rd. They will stay open, between 9AM and 8:30PM, through Labor Day, September 1st!
Here's a BIG CHANGE since last summer - NO SMOKING ALLOWED on any Chicago Beach! The fine for taking that drag within 15 feet of Chicago Golden Sand - up to $500!
That's good news for us Little Dogs - who often singe our soft little paws on those cigarettes smokers discard, but fail to completely put out!
It's supposed to top 80 degrees in Air Temperature on Sunday and Monday, Memorial Day. Before you scamper off into that inviting Lake Michigan water however, remember one thing - it's only 58 degrees now, according to a temperature reading taken today of Chicago's famous Oak Street Beach. The water temperature is not expected to reach the far-more-comfortable mid-60's until July 4th, or possibly later!
So stick your right front paw in slowly this weekend - test the water, before taking the plunge!
Enjoy your Memorial Day Holiday!

YOUR ACE REPORTER ON FOUR PAWS,

Dean- Sounds like a fun time, to bad the water won't be warmer. My Chloey hasn't even been in our pond yet this year, because it is so cold :-(

Lil Buddy is in his groove.

Lil Buddy is so cute... that is a face! How can you ever say no to him?
