Lakeview May Fest

This weekend's May Fest in Lakeview kick started the festival season in Chicago. Although not as large as Hyde Park's celebration, Lakeview's celebration included live music, food and local vendors. The people attending continued to celebrate the warm weather, even as severe weather loomed. The event was scheduled to continue until 10 p.m. Sunday night, but weather alerts started by 5 p.m.

    Why do I feel like every time the weather gets hot and nice, it always ends up with rain by the end of the day. #morechicagostorms

    For those not into dancing, the canucks game is on the flat screen. Classic rock in the background.
