Here are a few snapshots of this last week's walks for this #wednesdaywalk by
This past Saturday I had to go get my hair cut but my wife had the car so I ended up walking a mile in the snow for some exercise to get it. People on this hill were sledding and biffing it bad at the bottom of the hill. Thankfully there was plenty of thick snow to catch them.
Meanwhile in Chicago the river is high from all the snow that has melted.
Now that the mornings are getting brighter more fog is forming in-between the buildings.
The train station is nice and abandoned on the first few days of the week. I suspect most people act like they work from home on Monday.
Later on in the week there are alot more people downtown except for Friday.
Here is a really foggy day, most likely Tuesday. I think most of this fog was from snow that was being melted by a warm front moving in.
Meanwhile during lunch I found plenty of pigeons.
They are always pigging out at this location as someone drops a bunch of millet to feed them.
One of the main issues in Chicago is falling ice. After an ice storm with a warm front moving in there is a danger zone where sharp icicles fall off the buildings and spear you in the head... This causes a few injuries and even death each year.
Just imagine being hit by a sharp icicle falling off this huge building while on your lunch break... Talk about a splitting headache.
The more stair-stepped buildings at least will catch the higher icicles on the ledges below before they hit pedestrians lol.
Just a standard rush back to the train heading out of Chicago. They need to make a movie with Kurt Russell called Escape from Chicago.
That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)
