Linden, in Wilmette, is closer to downtown than the new 130th RLE station will be.

A little windy this morning in KEF, during the walk around the engine fan blades were spinning VERY fast

My last KEFs of the season, so I spent it doing some of my favorite things. Soaking in the pool, treats, my favorite coffee shops, fresh fish, and of course shopping for essentials.

O'Hare forever problems for now

A photo of the hall of flags at O'Hare, it's an airport terminal concourse with a curved semitransparent ceiling with white tube arches across. At the bottom of the arches are colorful flags that stick out

I always feel cooler stepping inside Helmut Jahn's United terminal. Been to lots of airports, good and bad, but O'Hare is like being in an airplane wing soaring through the clouds

I think it's pretty criminal that a pizza by the slice shop located under a 24 hour train stop, that also has 24 hour bus service closes at 10PM. Like come on.

Found a new Divvy Ebike and took it for a quick 8 min, 2 mile ride. Really liked it! Much smoother ride than the older ebikes, felt more "zippy" too. The E assisted felt pretty weak but that's probably because it only had a 4 mile range when I found it. Loved the phone holder!

It’s late summer, but walking around Hyde Park had an autumnal feel. There was a chill in the air, a few leaves on the ground and that leafy smell. #FallVibes

Radars across the eastern half of the U.S. States exploded with reflectivity ~22 hrs ago. Most is the result of birds with current estimates now over half a BILLION actively in flight. This is part of the annual fall migration southward and appears to be the busiest night of the season underway.
