Trip To Chicago

Here is some Art near Grant Park, I am standing within the display
when I took this. The figures were made in Europe, and purchased
by the City of Chicago for display. They are about 15' tall; hollow Iron.















This is a Dragon that I caught dozing off in the Shed Aquarium's
new display. There was much to see here, including whales and
Dolphins.

A visit home had more that enough un-expected delays and additional burdens. All and all, it was good to get back home; as a tourist. I walked and walked and walked some more. If I wasn't walking, I was on a bus, train, plane or in a cab. I managed to see all of the close family, and still had time to go to three different martial arts classes along the way.

It was good to see how well Jeff Curran is doing. Those guys are exploding! MMA is taking over the interests of all martial arts practitioners. I must say, if I was back in Chicagoland, anywhere in Chicagoland; this IS where I would be. They have such a large, beautiful club now. Check them out at www.teamcurran.com

Family is well. I am glad they let me walk their path even if only a moment. Once again, my door is open to you all, so please make it a point to visit me. Must go back to reading, so stay in touch.
