(http://www.elevatorradioshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/eesf-01-wb-150x150.jpg)Summer is finally here in the Midwest I think. Today is the 9th Annual Chicago Cruise to benefit the EESF. Should be a warm day out there on the water and I’m looking forward to it even though it’s going to be a long day.  I’m looking forward to seeing so many who listen to the show as well as come in for this event from all over the country. It’s one of the few times I get to really enjoy the great city of Chicago.
