On Thursday, my daughter and I took the Metra from Fox Lake, IL to Chicago to do the sights. An hour and a half train trip to the city, a day and good portion of the night, and then the trip home (another hour and a half). Regardless of the time and expenses, we had a wonderful day. On top of that, we met some really neat individuals from Seattle, had drinks and some snacks, and some fun conversations. I only wish I had busted out my sketchbook at that point. Whatever… I did make 5 drawings during the day, 3 of which I managed to photograph and present here. Thanks to everyone I was able to draw, it was nice for you to knowingly, of unknowingly, pose. Enjoy.
