Living in the plains of the Midwest does have its benefits. I do miss the Atlantic Ocean on the south shores of Long Island… the mountains of upstate New York… but I have come to appreciate the many beautiful horizons of our town: Minooka.

So, apparently, this meteorological phenomena is called a ‘sun dog’. I… uh… didn’t know that. Taken just behind my home.
winter expedition
We are having a very cold and snowy winter in the Midwest, but my youngest son and I went out for a winter expedition after the snow storm, and, before the temperatures plummeted – it is now -15 Fahrenheit. It was absolutely beautiful.

the field museum
The Chicago Field Museum is worth visiting for its exhibits and opportunities for learning, as well as for the grandeur of its architecture and the sheer size of the building.
joliet, il metra station and the field museum
My colleaugues and I went to Chicago last week to celebrate the birthday of our lead pastor. We spent some time at the Field Museum and then went to Daley Plaza to enjoy Christkindlmarket Chicago. Took lots of shots and I will be posting a few of them here over the next week or so. Hope you enjoy.
