Yeah, so, like six Julys ago I left Chicago and moved to Akron, OH. Since then I have only been back once, and that was for AWP 2009. But you know what? They have water here, too. Just look at this picture that was not taken in Chicago or on Lake Michigan, but right here in Ohio. Sure, there are some things I miss about my former home town, and I am counting the days until I visit again (for AWP 2012, of course). But this is where I live now. And here's just a little homage to where that is.
