Picture This!!

Barbe, I love, love, love your photos. Your fall pictures were just out of this world. I enjoy hearing your tips on photography as well.

GG, Beautiful sunrise pics!

Thanks 

This is me at the football game with my nephew Matthew. Hes Rocky the mascot for the HS 

It does look like fun! They did an employee appreciation lunch at work and a mascot turned up. Turns out somebody had swung it to get Wally from the Boston Red Sox so pop over and see us! 

I nipped outside and took this flash photo of one of the dinner plate dahlias tonight.

Here is a little Frog or Toad? I found in the yard.

Lisa, you gave me my dose of cuteness before going to bed. Thank you

that purple flower is beyond words, Barbe, I just love it..

The fall trees around the lake are beautiful. Is it a lake?

I am off to see the tall ships come into the harbor today, if they can make it through the giant waves..

OMG Lisa I love your pictures!! I love giraffes and Barbie I love yours too. You guys take such great pictures!  Nancy BW what does the Chicago weather man say? I know here in Indy its supposed to rain all weekend and all next week. Good thing about being in Chicago though is there is plenty of inside things for us to do.

These boats were pretty far out at sea..not the greatest focus

OMG, that looks like lambs wool on the flamingo 'chicklet'.  Lovin' the baby pics.

Every year the San Diego Maritime Museum hosts a Parade of the tall ships

I really look forward to it. 

Nancy C. I thought I was feeling better and the sharp stomach pains have returned so I will make this short. Frankly I am the worst person to get advice on the city. I won't go into all the reasons for that but I can tell you these things. The Planetarium is a good place to check out. Berghoffs on Adams is a good German restaurant that has been there for years. Of course Navy Pier is a big attraction and you were going to hit that anyway. Lou Malnotti's Pizza (sp?) is awesome. I am gluten free now so I can't eat that any more. Not sure where that restaurant is. I used to go to the one in my town. You can google hot spots of Chicago and come up with many suggestions. Of course shopping the Mag. mile is always an option as well. Storms are brewing here already. I hope you have a great time and I bet you will no matter what.
