a trip to the loop

Eve has an internship at City Hall this summer (now she knows a guy) and I joined her for breakfast this morning. I love this view down Clark Street towards the Board of Trade.
Here I am in at the Clark and Lake stop of the blue line. People are dressed for the 100 degree temperature today.
I have several choices of how to get home. Today, I get off at the Irving Park station.
The exit gate always make me feel like a boiled egg ready to be sliced.
I await the #80 bus under the L tracks and the expressway.
And come home to my lovely block.

All these sites are so familiar...I do love Chicago, and our block. I'll never be able to walk through the el exits without thinking of myself as a boiled egg, however:) Especially on a 100 degree day!!

I have memories of visiting my mom's Uncle Otto Denning in Chicago when we were kids. I remember the Loop. By the way, I love your quilts and blog!
