We really did work quite hard at avoiding toll roads in and around Chicago. And by and large, it worked pretty well. It took us a little longer to get to our meeting place with Jon and Emily, but we had plenty of time to spare and didn’t really mind driving through lots of towns along the way. After our dinner we decided to drive right through downtown (on the non-toll expressway) since after all, it was 8:30 at night and a Tuesday. How busy could it be? It wasn’t actually too bad – we just kept to our lane and let the other crazy drivers go around us. And of course I tried to document the drive – especially trying to catch the beautiful Chicago skyline in the fading light.
Here you go –

The Inchworms of Chicago
The Candles of Chicago
The Candy Canes of Chicago
The Birds of Chicago.
Kinda gives you a whole new view of the city, doesn’t it! 🙂
Needless to say, I either need a better camera or a smoother road, or a perhaps both!

Tooooo funny!
I love these pictures. And your wonderful sense of humor.
Yep, that is Chicago allright. I do not miss it either. This was an interesting way to capture what its like and communicate through photoart.
