| A visit to Chicago during a beautiful weekend. I roamed about, and snapped a few images.  |
| Designed by Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge, the Chicago Public Library’s building – today home to the Chicago Cultural Center – was completed in 1897. |
 |
| The Beach at Sainte-Adresse, by Claude Monet 1867 The Art Institute of Chicago |
 |
| The Marina City complex was designed by architect Bertrand Goldberg and completed in 1968. Known as The Corncob Buildings, this is my artsy angle. |
 |
| Nighthawks, by Edward Hopper 1942 The Art Institute of Chicago |
 |
| Lion, one of a pair of outdoor 1893 bronze sculptures by Edward Kemeys The Art Institute of Chicago |
Yes, this was the only feline I managed to find!
Beyond thankful to my family who included me in their travels, both last weekend and a couple of weeks ago when on the westside of Michigan.
Witnessing the gorgeous weddings of my two nephews were gifts of unimaginable value.
Let's Hop!
