Remember that when you leave this Earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received, only what you have given, a full heart enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage. -St. Francis of Assisi

  1. Neat pictures. Downtown Chicago is one place I will never see along with all those places people hike way up to. So it's always a good thing when others take pictures for me.

  4. I've never been to downtown Chicago either and am unlikely to go so thanks for the views. I'm envious of your pictures so well organized you can find things from 2007. I don't think I'd stand a chance.

  5. WOW! For someone from a town whose tallest building is 18 stories (212 feet), those buildings are monstrous!
