Random Thoughts about life in general, living in the big city of Toronto

See the post below for more info about my trip to Chicago this past weekend.
The Cloud Gate is one of the coolest things that I’ve seen in a very long time. It was amazing. I’ll probably be posting even better pictures of it on my Photoblog Breath of Life sometime in the near future if you are interested in seeing more.
In the meantime feel free to head on over to my flickr page to see more Chicago photos:

Friday's Child says
Wow! I’m speechless.
Thanks for the sympathy and thanks too for your happy greetings. My sister-in-law was finally put to rest. Cremation took place yesterday. It was a very painful moment for all of us as she was loved by the family. However, when one loves someone, she/he must also learn how to let go.

Oh wow! That is totally awesome! I wanna go and walk under the Cloud Gate! ‘Course, I think it might make me a bit dizzy… Well, dizzier than usual, that is. ๐
Lynn Tucker says

trippy!!!
Tricia says
Wow! I was hoping that you would all get a kick out of these photos but I never thought you’d like them as much as you appear too. The cloud gate was a fantastic site to see and for those of you that haven’t seen it yet you really need to visit it if you are ever in Chicago.
You won’t regret your visit there. Plus, there was a Mariatchi (spelling?) band playing in the square near the Bean so I’m assuming that they have live music regularly during the warm months. The fountain was very cool too – they actually put up pictures of people that have visited the art museum nearby ON the fountain. Pictures of that coming soon too.
Thanks for all your great comments. I’m very pleased that you liked the photos.
Steph says
