Now that I have made my decision to return to Virginia this fall I am noticing all the aspects of Chicago that I will miss. This is a city that is full of surprises, and it would take much longer than a year for me to experience this place in full! But sometimes timing does not work out the way you hope that it will, and the truth is that it is past time for me to get serious about my purpose. Luckily, I think I have found a sense of purpose that a degree in landscape architecture will help me to fulfill. Unfortunately, that means saying goodbye (but not yet!) to wonderful people and places that have made this past year so special.
These gardens at the Art institute downtown are a beautiful place to relax, a place of peace in the middle of the city.
A harbinger of Spring no matter what city! Sequoia loves flowers too:-)
Learning a few skills at work--I am not so terrible at catching tiny fish.
A lovely corner at home in my kitchen.
Baseball, the American pastime! The boys on the train on our way to see the White Sox play the Orioles at Sox stadium! According to every Chicagoan I have met, summer in this city is magical and I think the games will be an excellent way to experience a little bit of that.
