I have been inside 129 Illinois public libraries and don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this in Sterling: three-story stacks with glass floors to let in more light, original to the 1904 Carnegie building.

Cute little rear-of-lot house in Washington Heights for condo money. If I didn't already live where I live, I'd be tempted to live here and spend my time making the deep front yard into an extremely elaborate garden.

Commiserating from the war zone that is Chicago.
a tranquil park full of trees and wild grasses. The afternoon sunshine casts soft, dappled shadows though leaves that are just starting to turn yellow. a road with a bridge can barely be seen on the left-hand side through the greenery. I saw a bald eagle 7 minutes after taking this picture.

Looking southwest over Chicago. The sunset illuminates the undersides of the clouds. The clouds form stripes across the sky.

Listen to the Leaves Rustle. Minneapolis, Minnesota
Autumn branches frame the Minneapolis skyline across the river, with a tall tower catching the morning sun.Autumn trees and bright yellow shrubs line a riverbank across from a teal storefront and pale stone building.Dark leaves and hanging vines frame a patch of river glowing orange in the morning light.A red neon Nye’s sign glows above a quiet sidewalk, with parked cars and sunlit buildings down the street.

Timeline cleanse with some pretty views from this morning
A pink & blue sunrise sky showing down Jackson st from next to the Art Institute of Chicago. 

A CTA train is on the tracks above the road closure signs behind which the photograph was taken. 

On both sides of that center view lay 2 buildings, their grey stone cast in muted orange light, and the windows reflect a set of vibrant orange clouds cast in blue sky. Picture of Grant Park in Chicago looking southward from Jackson down Michigan ave

Vibrant orange clouds sit in a sky transitioning from the blue of pre-dawn with the yellow of daylight.
