More Wild Clouds

After all the wild weather on Thursday, these clouds (also, as yesterday's photo was, from Friday July 1) made me wonder if Sigourney Weaver was going to be showing up with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Who you gonna call, then??

Lights in the Windows

Several of the downtown high rises are honoring slain Chicago police officers this week by spelling out "CPD" in lights. This display is tied to the annual candlelight vigil held at the Chicago Gold Star Families Memorial and Park.

The CNA building, shown below, even adds the checkerboard design that circles the Chicago Police Department hats. (The pattern is officially called Sillitoe Tartan and, according to Wikipedia, is used by only a handful - Chicago, Pittsburgh, and a few Chicago suburbs - of American Police Departments.)
