Now I'm definitely one to really like my fun Chicago tours. So imagine my surprise and excitement at learning there will be a new tour of the city by none other than The Second City.
The Neighborhood Tour will kick off on July 19th with times on Wednesdays and Sundays. Not only will there be education, but also lots of humor about The Second City alumni.

Yellowman is known as the artist who helped bridge the gap between Bob Marley's music and the modern forms you hear today from artists like Buju Banton and Beenie Man.

Lucky for you, you've made reservations at Seasons restaurant. Starting tomorrow night and every Thursday through September 3, Seasons has launched its promotion "Dine without Whine." The kids get their own experience (with a licensed babysitter) while you get to enjoy your date.
