Chicago Snaps

We made it back to Fort Worth Tuesday, after another pleasant stay in Chicago. The weather turned sunny the last two days and we had a fine time walking about the city. Our hotel, theWit at Lake and State, was great, and only a short walk to the Clark station on the Blue Line to O'Hare. The Art Institute was wonderful, as always. One night we splurged on a big seafood meal at Shaw's Crab House, where I had soft-shell crab for the first time in years.

I've never seen another city that works as hard as Chicago does at keeping their home clean and inviting: flowers are planted anywhere there's a square foot of dirt, streets and sidewalks are clean, and everyone seems proud of their city and glad that you're visiting.

Here's my snaps from the trip. There's a few postcard shots, an exploration of modern bathroom design, a portrait of six women, and a few other things that caught my eye and interest.
