I know what I did last summer!

And now to the fairest season of them all (at least in Chicago). Summer sees flowers. Lots of them. The City always puts plants and flowers on Michigan Avenue - near the home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, near the Art Institute of Chicago, near the river, all along the Magnificent Mile...













I see trees of green, red roses too,
I see them bloom, for me and you,
And I think to myself: "What a Wonderful World".
(Louis Armstrong)



July and August, though, are the best times to be in Chicago.
The quarter's over - so no teaching, it's summer break!
The weather's absolutely remarkable - so go roam around!
The summer blockbusters are all coming out - so plenty of "movie and a dinner" outings to downtown!

Downtown's coming up later - but let me end with two snapshots - taken in July and August - of the prettiest skyline in the world.
