WW: Chicago Sights & One of My Favorite Things

16 Replies

For this edition of Wordless Wednesday, I thought I would share with you a few more photos from Chicago. Is it possible to fall in love with a city that you hardly got to explore? The buildings, the architecture, not to mention how Chicago was so clean (at least where we were)! I’m already looking for an excuse to go back… Wrigley Field – you’re on the top of my list!

I remember when I first moved to Texas, Heather told me that if I ever got lost, just to look for the water towers and they would help me out. (I doubt she even remembers telling me that.) At the time, I just kind of overlooked the fact of what she was saying. Now, I look for them, just to look for them and well, you can’t really miss them. I love capturing them in photos – maybe it’s just the fact that we didn’t have them back in Vermont like we do in Texas.

Last weekend, I took a little drive northwest of Fort Worth and drove thru a couple small towns. This is what I came up with.

I love how I was able to grab the Texas flag in this photo. Texans and their pride. Something to say that the Texas flag is blowing the the American one is not.

This last one, was near the Texas Motor Speedway. Talk about old and rusted.
Love how this one came out too.
