The Rhythms of Chicago

On Memorial Day weekend, I came back to my hometown of Chicago not living there for several years. I decided to explore the city as a tourist would. In my journey, I stumbled upon a House Music Festival in Millennium Park. I went in and saw people standing in front of a wonderfully lit stage, captivated by beautiful sounds, and the city was lit up in honor of fallen soldiers in the background. This scene took my breath away.
