A Fun Few Days
I've had a great past few days. I visited Warren Dunes last Saturday. I spent last evening with my brother Enoch, who is leaving for Alaska shortly. Today I drove to Chicago to leave off a co-worker (and boss-ish character) and his family for their flight to Ecuador. Then my Dad and I wandered Chicago. We parked far out of the city and took the train in. We rumbled and rattled under and over the streets, and I realized the "L" (elevated rail-road) reminded me a little too strongly of an old, rickety roller-coaster. Of course this danger only added to my fun. My trusty little camera was by my side and by it I bring you these brief glimpses of my wide travels.
(Click on, fair pilgrim, that you may find rest for your soul.)
This dutiful sign warns against illegally parking your camel.
I breezed past this Porsche 911 Targa on the 90 into Chicago. The driver seemed to be having more fun than I was, and he was just sitting there!
This ancient edifice caught my eye as we searched for Gino's East (to which my nose unswervingly led me.)
My search for food was not un-countered. This ferocious fellow blocked the bridge with chilling words. "None Shall Pass!"
Brave, but foolish.
