While Out & 'Aboot'

 'Queue The Grind'

 'Inside For Out'

(Glenn's Diner 

1820 W Montrose Ave Chicago IL 60613)

 'Dubble Bubble Out'

(found lying in the dust at park baseball field)

'Big Mouth Rupert'

Ode To Joyce Kilmer

Joyce Kilmer penned the poem starting with "I think that I shall never see; a poem as lovely as a tree..."

Mood & Tone

These are personal favorites for no other explainable reason other than I like their mood and tone.

 'Red chair, Green Buddha'

 'Natural Light on Fake Plant'

 'Solitude'

 'Window Dressing In Stitches'

'Butt On In'

(The Chicago icon, Billy Goat Tavern.  No photos inside, but through the door window is fine.)

Grab Bag

Personally, I'm kinda tired of the over use of the word "random", but that's what we've got here...some random photos taken along the way...

 "Budding"

 This little guy was a little too interested in the cash registrar, while his parents were a little too interested in the price of their bill.  He knew I had a camera pointed at him, but gave me the classic little kid look that says, "Who me being naughty? If I don't look at the lady she won't see me."

 "Stuck Up Art"

"Summer Preview"

Midwest Mountains

I'm pretty sure it was Garrison Keillor who referred to clouds in the Midwest as the Midwest Mountains.  It's her clouds, I find, to be Illinois' best feature.
