No, not dead - just enjoying early retirement!
Also, I managed to move (again!) this summer, to a nearby location where things are happening.
That's not why I'm posting. I stopped by to give a belated shout-out to e-r.org member ohyes, who graciously acted as my unofficial travel agent for a return to my homeland, City of the Big Shoulders. Chicago. I got great advice to come back and stay in an area to which I'd never been: Andersonville. That's up north and a great place to spend some time. Highly recommended as a base and has plenty of friendly locals to meet.
Of course, I have a batch of photos, but I'll post two from that trip. One shows why I scheduled this return when I did (late June, early July) and the other shows a pleasant thing to do. I might have been in Chicago, but I greatly enjoyed the view of Manhattan at a place on Clark St directly across from the Swedish American Museum.
Better late than never - thanks and a tip of my (Cubs!) cap to ohyes!
