Unmarried With No Children
Sorry for all the boring posts with just pictures, but I’ve been so tired that by the end of the day I just have time to post some pictures and crash. Today was a long day, but I did find a little time to go out and snap these shots before dinner. Cheers!
Crown Fountain in Millennium Park
Remember the beginning of “Married With Children”? LOL
That’s the Sear’s Tower on the far left. From the time I was in grade school to college, it was the tallest building in the world. That was a long time ago
Love and marriage, love and marriage…
I used to swim in Lake Michigan every summer.
That’s the Adler Planetarium on the left and the Shedd Aquarium on the right.
A Segway tour of the Lakefront, from Soldier Field to Navy Pier.
James’ and my love child, LOL

Interesting ‘facial wall’ artwork…complete with waterfall!!
I bet the weather must be super warm, the kids are having such a fun time!
crown fountain looks fun!!
That fountain is impressive! Creepy… but impressive!
Love the pictures. Amazing!
Oh yeah, HI!
Just perusing blogs, thought I’d say Hello!
The first picture, I thought children were squirting water into the mouth at first but it was opposite.
Chicago seems to be culturally vibrant!
your pix are always interesting and beautiful and as they say, a pic is worth 1000 words. peace, Al
Thank you ever so much. Every time I pass a tall building now I am going to cringe, thinking a giant face is going to projectile vomit a stream of water onto me, or worse.
I want to adopt your “love child” lol….
your pictures are never boring. quite entertaining. never saw the like as the red faced fountain.
i love lake michigan. i was born and raised in michigan. and loved the lake. once when we went to visit lake michigan, a horrible storm came upon us. we sat in the car while the rain pounded, and the waves were frighteningly huge. when it calmed down. the beach was covered with fish that the huge waves threw on the shore. we had to watch where we walked on the beach. a fond memory. :)
but pictures are great fun!
Hah. With friends like you, who needs enemies.
Hi, nice to meet you! :)
the Once movie, u mean they won a soundtrack award? Thats great to hear dat! ^_^
I like the Crown Fountain, it bring joy to kids :D How a wonderful park.Which city do u live in US?
@wherethefishlives - I know, right? I was asking my friends last night if they knew why the artist decided to include such ugly, scary faces in the Obelisks. No one knew. I’d much personally rather see children’s faces, especially since kids play there in the summer. Or, maybe I’d look good in there: http://x00.xanga.com/2828537053468112188313/w69211802.jpg
And come on, that kid look like a mini you! He’s absolutely adorable!!
@curry69curry - It’s warm here, but not too warm. Perfect really at 80°
@generasianx - Yep! If I wasn’t in my work clothes, I would have been in there with the kids!
@chickwcamera - Thanks for stopping by!
@kim85 - LOL, now that you mention it….
@Dezinerdreams - Yes, it really is. Even more so now than when I lived here.
@pukemeister - What a nice thing to say. Thanks
@MlleRobillard - LOL…I never thought about it that way!
@ElusiveWords - Sorry, he look like my friend James…so he’s ours!
@razzlebash - Thanks. I have fond memories of the Lake too. Especially in the winter when it’s frozen!
@qccan - Thanks! Happy Wednesday
@infinitysurfer - You’re such a great sport James
@pang890528 - Thanks…nice to meet you too. I live in Los Angeles, the 2nd biggest city in the U.S., but I’m visiting Chicago, the 3rd biggest city. Yep, the song from that movie won the Academy Award this year for best movie song. Those 2 are a real life couple now, and they gave their acceptance speech together. http://youtube.com/watch?v=qx8yLvb0gZM
yes, in the winter when lake michigan is frozen and they cross it w snowmobiles to get to mackinaw island. and that beautiful hotel on mackinaw island. i always felt sorry for the horses that pulled the wagon w all the tourists up the hills. they seemed to struggle so. i guess it was their only work out and kept them in shape.
What is it with Asian people thinking they all know martial arts? Damn Asians.
@NDM - LOL, his Mom told me he’s taking karate lessons
