Hey, there're some familiar sights. When were you out here in Chicago Grace?
This past August Petrarch. On vacation with my sweetie. Do you live IN Chicago?
Here's another from Niagara Falls. An interesting picture, and I should give credit to my wife for taking it. That's me in silhouette.

If you seperate out the fact that it is a gravestone, some of these monuments are very interesting.Quote:

You captured it well. I know the spot where you took that Sears Tower shot too. I really like that one. It looks like your pic. of the lake is facing south. Did you by chance walk out to the point near the Museum of Science and Industry? There's a great view northward of the city skyline from there.Quote:
