+This past week {{< tess >}} and I traveled to Chicago to attend the wedding of
+Bill, one of my oldest friends, and his partner Ashley. They've been a couple
+for a long time. I'm thrilled that they've decided to take this step together,
+and grateful to have been invited to witness it. Bill also asked my dad to
+perform the ceremony, and I think he did an excellent job.

+After the wedding day, we spent several days in Chicago sightseeing and visiting
+with friends and family. We went record shopping at [Reckless][reckless], walked
+down Navy Pier and Michigan Avenue, rode the L (including a stop a the
+delightfully old timey [Quincy Station][quincy]), took selfies at the
+[Bean][bean], and caught Hokusai's [Great Wave Off Kanagawa][wave] at the [Art
+Institute of Chicago][artic] on a limited exhibition. We had breakfast at
+[Tary][tary], and stopped in for pints at [The Kerryman][kerryman], a pub owned
+by one of Tess' distant Irish cousins.
