2024: Love the Bag. Taken on Broadway just south of Belmont

Mony was speaking at the service at 2U today, so we were rushing to get there and I missed what could have been two good photos. Afterward we went to breakfast and I took this.

2020: Soaring Eagle. Taken on the Sleeping Bear Point Trail in Sleeping Beard Dunes National Lakeshore in Leelanau County, MI. Seeing eagles is not uncommon in Sleeping Bear Dunes, but I have never gotten such a long close look to one as I did today. I was hiking on the Sleeping Bear Point Trail and this beautiful Eagle soared over me and pretty low. This was one of many photos that I took.
2018: Shut down the Dan Ryan. Taken on the Dan Ryan at 79th street in Chicago. I was tired this morning and not sure how many would show up to shut down the Dan Ryan to protest the violence and lack of investment in communities on the South and West side since the police were threatening arrests. But I decided that if someone like me, doesn't show up for something like this, then how can there be hope -- or at least how can I feel any. So I stood and marched with thousands of others and we did shut it down, and we will stand and march together again.
2016: An iced drink on a hot morning. Taken on Connecticut Ave just north of 18th Street in Washington, DC
2012: Swing Bridge. Taken at the harbor in Michigan City.
