Love the unseasonably warm weather in Chicago?

You have my special guest to thank for that. The only person with a more powerful weather fairy than mine is my mom. Where my weather fairy prevents bad weather from spoiling events, hers actually brings good weather to her. Every time she is in Chicago the weather is PERFECT! She was here a few days before Christmas one year and it was 70 degrees. We took advantage of the nice weather to see Cloud Gate or "The bean" - it was being polished last time she was here. Tomorrow we head to Nashville, TN where it will be a high of 78! I even dug out my sandals for the trip. I'm sure those will look great with the big 'ol cowboy hat I'm gonna get.
