Blustery Spring

I actually took this photo about a week and a half ago. Then we had some beautiful sunny days so it just seemed out of place to post it. But we're back to foggy, rainy, unseasonably cold Spring so here it is. (You know it's bad when the television meteorologist and traffic person both say "Oh just stay home today.")

Technicolor Tulips

Technicolor Tulips popped up in Milennium Park. Perhaps Spring has finally arrived ;)

Sunset Silhouettes

Some existing and some "in-progress" buildings silhouetted against a Spring Sunset.

Harrison Haiku

I've mentioned before that most of the CTA el stations have some type of public art installation. At the Harrison Stop on the Red Line, this art is in the form of haikus written by students in Columbia College's Creative Writing Poetry program and students from the nearby Jones College Prep School.

This particular haiku seems to indicate that the Cubs vs. Sox is not the only North Side/South Side rivalry in Chicago. (The Clark and Lake stop is on the North Side; the Harrison stop is on the South Side.)

... you WANT to know why there are handcuffs on the signpost ... but maybe not.
