I think this is sort of sad. A Church for sale. It looks like it's in very good shape so it must have closed recently. I really like the bell tower, It sort of reminds me of those model churches you put out during Christmas time.

Chicago Avenue Discount Stores
Saturday was such a wonderful day to get out of the house. So I did. I decided to take a bus up to the Ukrainian Village neighborhood and walk around. From there I decided to walk down Chicago Avenue. I started at Hoyne and walked to Halsted. It was a nice walk.
This picture represents a typical block along Chicago Avenue. There are a lot of discount stores. This is a nice block of 19th century buildings still being used as intended. Stores on the main level with apartments above.

Stage in the Great Hall at Union Station
Saturday was the first National Train Day sponsored by AMTRAK. Here is the stage in the Great Hall at Union Station.
May 10th was chosen to celebrate National Train Day because it's the anniversary of the connection of the Union Pacific and Western Pacific railroads.

By the River
I took these shots yesterday while using my new Kodak Z712 IS. This camera has an 12x optical zoom and it's perfect when I don't want to take out the Olympus. This panoramic is made out of 7 different shots. I think photoshop did a good job in putting it all together.
