SAMSUNG 32" 4000 Series TV

Still in box, and never opened. I won this SAMSUNG 32" 4000 Series by upgrading my phone at Sprint, but already have a television. I dont have the extra space, and need for two televisions. - $180

Everybody's Coffee

First off, i love the Mocha Maya! I stumbled on this place, after leaving Truman College, while looking for a TCF Bank. I figured might as well check it out; as would any other serious yelper. Got totally great service from the guy at the register, who was very outgoing. I ordered a Mocha Maya, and got the last Red Velvet donut. Never knew there was such a thing, until i came to Everybody's Coffee. Anyway, this is a great, calm study spot for anyone. Its location is right up the street from CTA Wilson, Truman College, and in that little sector across from Uptown Baptist Church. Luckily i checked this place out, and most definitely will be returning in the future.

Enjoy!

Mocha Maya

Im being bad, as always + I got a Mocha Maya at Everybody's Coffee in Uptown.

Boystown

I wanted to run only five miles today, because I'm racing tomorrow, but that five turned into eight miles; out and back; my Boystown run route.

Chicago Marathon is near! Two weeks away! Today, i counted like five runners wearing the red 2015 Chicago Marathon shirt on the trail. Boom Shakalaka!

Watching the sunrise at Kathy Osterman Beach

Watching the sunrise at Kathy Osterman Beach (Hollywood Beach) never gets old. It's very peaceful, and also a great place to clear the mind from negative thoughts.
