2024: It's an Eclipse. Taken in the Reserva Bosque Sereno barrio in Aguascalientes, Mexico.

We spent the day working – but like everyone else in the path of the solar eclipse, we donned our glasses and went out to watch the moon and the sun. We were at about 91% coverage – so not in the path of totality. So it was about the same as Chicago, and there was plenty of sun both places. Everyone else was at work, so we were the only ones watching in the neighborhood, and it was so cool.

2020: Shooting while driving. Taken at the ramp from the Kennedy Expressway to the Eisenhower Expressway in Chicago. It is not as bad as it looks. I kept my eyes on the road and took my chances with the shot.
2018: There is a pup hiding in there. Taken on Lawrence just west of Hamlin in Chicago.
2016: Opening Day in Chicago. Taken at US Cellular Field on 35th Street in Chicago. Yes, it was that cold; it was snowing; and the Sox lost 7-1 -- but it was still opening day, and we had fun!
2012: American Legion Post No. 33. Taken in Ottawa, Illinois
