I took the 'El' to Oak Park to Yolanda's apartment on South Blvd. I finally got to see her apartment. We always laughed at the time that my Mom, Grandpa Thomas, and I stopped over to Yolanda's apartment to visit, but she wasn't home. It's been a joke at work, as people in Chicago don't just stop by each others homes for a visit. I remember seeing just cactus in the window that time. Now, I was finally going to see the inside of her place.
Yolanda, Lilly, and I drove to Grand Rapids from Chicago to see the Prince concert. There was a winter storm on the way and I warned Yolanda that Michigan's storms were brutal, but she figured she could handle it. The line to go inside the VanAndel was wrapped around for 2 blocks. The tickets were at will call. Prince didn't sell his tickets online. We waited outside in line in the cold and snow for 1 1/2 hours. We were so glad when we finally got inside. Prince didn't start his concert until everyone was in the building, which I thought was very nice. Prince did an excellent concert. We all had a great time. The drive home was not easy for Yolanda. The snow was coming down so hard that we could barely see outside the window. She did an excellent job, though. She dropped me off at my apartment on Oakdale which was very nice.
