  1. It's time for Chicago

    Chicago transforms into a warm-weather temptress once the city bids winter farewell. A sparkling lakefront framed by skyscraper views is just the beginning. Free events are abundant at city parks and along Chicago's 18-mile Lakefront Trail. Favorites include the Taste of Chicago (July 10-14) and the Chicago Air and Water Show (Aug. 17-18). Travelzoo reports an abundance of hotel, entertainment and local deals that save as much as 50 percent for spring and summer travel. Ditch your car and take the "L" out to the neighborhoods. Then turn around and look back at a skyline so beautiful that even suburban commuters have to marvel at it as they head to work each day.

  4. Up, up and away? Sure! Sky's the limit.

    How to guide readers through the skies, waters and times of the annual Chicago Air and Water Show? My part in it was to create a useful air and water show map, and I tried to build something that people could take with them to the show -- either to figure out where to watch from or to keep track of which planes they'd seen.
