Evening View of the Chicago River
Since I don’t have committee meetings until tomorrow, I flew to Chicago this morning and arrived mid-afternoon. I’m staying in a hotel (Wanda is my roommate) on North Michigan Ave. just north of the Chicago River. It’s located in the area known as the Magnificent Mile. I’m told that McCormick Place, the Convention Center, is an hour walk away, so I was glad to discover that there was satellite registration at a hotel just across the River. With that accomplished, I headed down Michigan Ave. to eat a late lunch, then meet Lauren P. and Kaeley, who had conducted their pre-conference this afternoon. We met to attend the LITA Happy Hour, an annual get-together of the group. Then we had a dinner outdoors beside the Chicago River. The picture above is the view we had. I had a little chance to take some photos, since my work doesn’t gear up until tomorrow. It’s great to be back in Chicago, it’s one of my favorite cities!

esp. like the Cloud Gate & American Gothic sculptures.
This is a beautiful picture. I live only an hour away and sometimes being a local, we forget how pretty the city looks at night.
