Vincent, through his eyes
For those of you who might appreciate Vincent van Gogh, as I do, I'm certain you'll find this interesting.
I miss you Vincent...and all you stood for.

C'mon, Wake Up: MONDAY MORNING CALISTHENICS
To cheer you into your work-week, something old, yet still fresh!
I was awakened several times tonight with severe leg cramps. I didn't quite dance like this to relieve them, but wish I could!

Beaches
Not quite what you may have thought?
These are Chicago's northernmost beaches along the shore of Lake Michigan.
I begin with Howard Street Beach, because I just could not walk several more blocks north in yesterday's more-than-bracing wind.
Waves were pounding...only the bottom third of this shot is the actual sand of the beach.
The view to the south included Fargo Avenue Beach, Jarvis Avenue Beach, Sherwin Avenue Beach, and on down to the Farwell Avenue Beach pier...with the rest beyond.
The ices floes are huge this year, and the sound of the waves intimidating. Perhaps, I'll go again, soon, on another similar day and shoot video, so you can get the feel of what's it's like to live near Lake Michigan, a formidable ever-changing entity, in winter.

Chicago Sun-Times photo of William Daley by Brian Jackson in 2009
President Obama will tap former Commerce Secretary William Daley Thursday afternoon to be his new White House chief of staff, a senior administration official confirmed to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Read the rest...
*********
It's not exactly the most flattering photo of Billy they could find, is it? But then, he's not a flattering type, is he?
Has the Sun-Times never heard of Photoshop (TM) or color correction?
Does Barack Obama know and trust nothing but Chicago?
We already dealt with foul-mouthed Rahm Emanuel, and now there's a Daley in the White House?
Guess Barack and Michelle haven't been doing their jobs well enough...so 'the big gun' was sent in?
All this on the Day of Epiphany...could be cited by some as blasphemous, ye?
For those of you who are purists...
...here are Betty and Sarah.
Touch me...
It's so easy to leave me...
All alone with the memories
Of my days in the sun...
If you touch me...
You'll understand what happiness is..
Look...a new day has begun.
