I took the train in to the big, scary city this morning for a job interview...and snapped this photo right outside of Union Station. I love the beautiful City of Chicago...and everything about it. Even though I whine and cry about the ridiculously cold winters, summers that feel like we're in the bowels of hell, and the traffic that looks much like a sit-in at times...I love it here. I loved the time that I lived on the north side of the city...regardless of the terrible parking and reverse commute to the suburbs for my crappy job. I love that when you take the diagonal route on Lincoln Avenue you can see 700 bars, and 800 Chinese restaurants. I love the Cubs (no matter how terrible they are) and the feel you get on a summer afternoon at Wrigley Field (Old Style Light in hand). I could never imagine myself living anywhere else...and even though, we're living in the suburbs, and only getting into Chicago on very little occasions, I still call it my home.
Anyway, enjoy this shot of the Sears Tower...as it will always be known to me.
