Last night the neighborhood was pretty loud as the people went to the streets after the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup.
Parade is on Friday.

Stanley Cup Final: Game Five.
This past Sunday Julie and I went to Game Five of the Stanley Cup Final. As much as I’d like to see the Stanley Cup won in Chicago it felt like the odds were against the Hawks going into this game. After dropping games three and four to the Flyers everyone had assumed the series would end in Game Six. Now if that holds true the Blackhawks will have their first Cup in 49 years. As all the Chicago games have been in this series it was intense and the Hawks started off quickly getting their first PowerPlay goal in about three months.

Mayfest.
After a a nap following Beer Hoptacular I headed up north for this year’s Mayfest. Despite the rain and a short power outage the night went well. There was a lot of beer as one might expect and a good group of people. I think this year was the most time I’ve ever spent at Mayfest (we were actually there until last call). Granted the previous years it’s usually 90 degrees and the middle of the afternoon.
