A White Morning


Before I start I must explain. In England (well my part of England anyway) we don't get that much snow. Also we never seem to keep it for long. So you can perhaps imagine my surprise to wake up this morning and find the world outside had a white covering.

Beautiful...Just beautiful.

The unspoiled look of the world before you walk through it and feel the pressure of the snow change under your feet. I just love it.

By the time I got home from work tonight it had all disappeared...but maybe tomorrow......

The Windy City

Before you ask ........Yes it is a windy city


Some of you will know that as part of my new job I took business trip to Chicago for a course. So I thought I might share some of my views of the city with you. The skyline is not like any in England that I have met before.

This is the Hancock Tower it's the second tallest building in Chicago after the Sears tower which was where I was working.









It's a long way down...........but you do get some nice views of the City and Lake Michigan.









The building with the Antennae on is The Sears Tower where I was working.

My favourite place was outside on Navy Pier looking out onto Lake Michigan, the views (I hope you will agree) were beautiful.
