I dunno if any of you have been here in Chicago before but I am in the “Red Line” towards Howard, which takes me to the Purple line and then that takes me to the Northwestern campus. I enjoyed NYC’s subway system and this seems about the same. Although it’s above and below ground more than NYC’s is. Posted a few shots up at nathanchase.com of me walking around near and around the museum. They wouldn’t let me take pics inside the museum which is unfortunate because there were these really amazing hanging abstract sculptures by Brecourt (think that’s spelled right). Seeme like this ride is going to take a while. Peace.

Seeing Chicago from the air as descended for landing was like looking out onto a twinkling, sparkling river of light. Amazing. Quick flight too – only a little over 2 hours. I’m now in a shuttle van off to the hotel. Feels nice and crisp up here. Nice and cool. I am anxious to see what the city is like and visit the Museum of Contemporary art tomorrow, and hook up with Dan and see Northwestern’s campus. Man this guy is driving fast! Didn’t get to sit right next to Krissy on the way up, but we were only one row apart and like I said was a smooth ride. 12 minutes to downtown… Hopefully I will be snapping some shots while I’m up here with my camera attachment and putting them up on nathanchase.com – happy april fool’s day everyone!
