Sam’s Red Hots, Bucktown, Chicago
Last night I was walking on Armitage to meet up with the Chicagoist staff for happy hour at Cleo’s. I passed Sam’s Red Hots and liked how it looked in the sun. I love the mild temperatures, intense sun and long shadows of autumn. My favorite time of the year.
Our happy hour was really fun. I got to meet some people on staff who I’d actually never met in person before. Everyone drank entirely too much and I picked up the check, so it was a great time. FYI, Cleo’s has half price ($3.99) 12″ pizzas on Thursday nights, which makes the pizza cheaper than a lot of the beers they have. And they’re not like grody frozen pizzas, we’re talking about bacon & blue cheese, barbecue chicken, margarita, etc.

My parents have quite a bit of land that they own. It’s like a nature preserve with tons of wildlife and plants and a pond. My dad has been doing a lot of work outside over the past year. Mostly just cleaning things up – removing brush so that the trails are walkable and that sort of thing.
On Saturday it was raining and gray and cold so we didn’t go outside much, but on Sunday morning it was really sunny. My dad and I went for a walk around the pond. A little way out I heard a noise and realized that Bailey was following us. We walked about halfway around the pond. On the way back my mom and Dakoda met up with us. It was nice to be out in nature on a cold but sunny fall day.
