Everyone is Irish for at least a week in Chicago. For as long as I can remember, it was not St. Patrick’s Day until the Chicago River is dyed green. Also, I have never in my life boated in Chicago in March… so who doesn’t like adventure? Full Disclos...

Fall Boating on the Chicago and Illinois River
Every fall, there is a slow dance of boats in the Midwest which get pulled before winter hits. Usually in October, the marinas start to empty out and the storage yards start filling up. I recently had the privilege to captain one of four boats headin...

I want my kids to love fishing, but we RARELY can catch anything. Are there any good lakes close to the Chicagoland area that are great for kids and the fish are biting? We're willing to travel too, but nothing longer than 5 hours from North Chicago...
Unplugged!
When asked what's my one favorite part of boating, it's easy....being unplugged! With 3 teenagers, having us all come together to laugh, soak up the sun, and simply be in the moment is undeniably priceless. No phones (except for music) , no emails,...
