    Which is sad news for me, as I liked flying through O'Hare better than the Continental option of Newark, or the US Airways option through Philadelphia.

    That's nuts. I was just in Chicago wearing my Black Stewart kilt all week. As I was driving out, I saw the Lollopalooza taking place. It looked like a blast. Aren't Chicago people wonderful about kilts? I got so many compliments.

    The "Ferris Bueller" shot makes me dizzy-I don't do heights in buildings!

    Jeez, Taper...you actually found Billy Goats! That puts you in the top ten percent of tourists!

    It's good to see what you found interesting enough to photograph...I'm sure that you've got more. That Metra station is a replica of a Paris Metro entryway...I know the guy who decided that Michigan Avenue needed a bit more class and personally paid to have the thing put in...quite a civic gesture, eh?

    And I hope that the Sears Tower was all it's cracked up to be...as a Native Chicagoan, I have never been up there...it's the law. Now, the CN Tower in Toronto...hey...you can't keep me away David would love the CN Tower: they have a plexiglass floor that you can walk out on and it's waaaaaay down to the ground where they have a tasteful floral display of a huge Maple Leaf done in red blossoms.

    And, KT, how were any of the bars that you checked out?

    Best

    Nice pics, thanks.

    So that's the view from the top of the Sears Tower! I've always wondered . . .
