Day 186 - Happy Birthday, Chicago

March 4, 2012. Today was the 175th birthday of the City of Chicago. Also today, the Chicago Polar Plunge benefitting Special Olympics was held. I shot lots of wacky people in Lake Michigan while my feet got wet and cold, though the rest of me stayed dry.  Keep an eye on flickr (by clicking this photo) to see photos of those wacky people as I upload them.

March 1, 2012. I am now halfway through my 365 (366) project. This place has been open a few months, and I really want to try it, but I just haven't gotten in there yet. Someday I will have your tasty falafel.

Day 182 - Leap!

Feb 29, 2012. Leap Day, so of course I'll take a leaping picture. I had already tried getting myself leaping on the pier at North Avenue Beach, but that didn't work very well, so I convinced Mallory to jump off of stuff. Maybe in four years, I'll try again.

Feb 28, 2012. This was a spontaneous photo when Hannah put on my sunglasses, but it's very reminiscent of the Velvet Underground and maintained its precedence for photo of the day.
