Here are some other cool photos from my phone/Google. Have to find the photos from the nice camera.
Boston Calling Music Festival at Government Center in Downtown Boston
Matt & Kim crowd throwing balloons in the air. Cold, windy, raining, and awesome time.
Every St Patrick’s day the City of Chicago dyes the river green.
However, if you want to see that color in its natural state all you have to do is fly to Newark and take the monorail to one of the car rental stops. Between the last airport terminal and the car rental stops, look out the starboard side and there will be a small stream/ditch running near a chain link fence that is usually that color.
I was wondering if I would be the only one in the north too heh. Our area seems pretty absent of ‘Maker’ anything. Closest I found was one in Sandpoint ;p
That waterfall is pretty darn cool. But sure seems like a distinct lack of trees down there. I like trees.
You should come visit the other Illinois. The Shawnee National Forest and especially the Garden of the Gods. Stunning. I will have to dig out some photos. But I agree the middle isn’t so interesting.
Big fan of southern IL, Ben. Used to take weekend trips with the kids to Garden of the Gods, Cave in Rock, Giant City, etc. It’s so different than the center of the state! Living in the middle of the state has its advantages. A quick shot up to Chicago for urban attractions, and a quick shot south for nature. And we still get all four seasons in the middle! And huge sky sunsets, since there’s nothing in the way!
Yep. ThIs is basically my back yard. A outdoorsman paradise for sure. I now live right across the river now. But I’m still very close to action. Frequent trips to Nashville keeps balance. Love that photo btw.
Here is a shot of my own, standing near a ridiculous cliff with no rails. It was in Australia , it was near Uluru, about 5 years ago. Ignore the beard, it’s shrunk.
