1) CHICAGO - Yes, I'm traveling again -- this time for a client project. I visited Chicago, Madison and Dallas this week. However I few in a day early to spend time with friends like Virginia.

2) CHICAGO - So this beach looks nothing like the beaches that I'm used to seeing.

3) CHICAGO - I've always wanted to take one of these photos of the "L" overpasses!

5) CHICAGO - Don't ask me why, but I like this photo. It looks black and white, but it isn't.

6) CHICAGO - People brave the windy shores of Lake Michigan.

7) CHICAGO - True to form, it started snowing while downtown. I found cover in one of the ubiquitous Starbucks that I saw all throughout my Search for Thor.

8) DENVER - Day #1 (or rather Night #1) of the BIG MOVE. This is my brother's new house -- exactly one block from my house, where he's lived for the past seven years.

9) DENVER - Our faithful Snoopy dog Junior Jr. guards over Dave's stuff as we begin to move his furniture.

10) DENVER - Since Dave only moved one block away, we hand-carried most of the stuff -- including the bed frame!

11) DENVER - It's Spring! Yea! My crocuses enjoy a warm day.
