Chicago is my kind of town

Last week I took a VERY quick trip to Chicago last week, really just 24 hours, but I got a couple of cool images while I was there. This is the Roosevelt Fountain in Grant Park.

And this is Cloud Gate in Millennium Park, which I also call “the bean.” I’m sure this is a common nickname, at least among us tourists.

And these are some sailboats anchored in Lake Michigan, near Grant Park. It was a calm afternoon on the water, not really anywhere near as windy as I expected for a fall day in Chicago.
