Sand and time

Greeting the autumn in the Indiana Dunes, I take a moment during the hiking to just lay down and enjoy the sand and the lake' sight. I will come back during the winter to see how much this landscape changes.

Hunter-gatherer

Following tracks, placing baits, setting up traps, hunting high and low, the quest for a job gives no respite.

Uptown

Randolph and Clark, downtown Chicago.

Chicago 2016... or 2028?

Autumn waters

Living here, whatever has been my mood, economic situation and expectations about the future (or lack of them) along the seasons, I have always found in the sight of Chicago things to admire, things that -most of times- give me new hopes.

Paranormal!

Right about to start the prescreening of "Paranormal Activity", I am already practicing my scared faces. The last movie that really scared me was "The Blair Witch Project", mostly because I used to spend a lot of time camping, sometimes alone.

Where no man has gone before

After most of my life devoted to learn only the intrincacies of cooking, I have decided to enter into the uncharted waters of baking. The outcome, still inside the oven, is uncertain.

Space Invaders!

Ecological spaceships, from some undiscovered and probably well intentioned planet, have landed in Michigan Ave. Hazmat teams, the CIA and the National Guard are expected in any moment.

Geo Citizen!

From now on, I will be writing blogs about Chicago's places in GeoPage, a social online service oriented to find local places in the main cities of U.S. You can learn more about it and find my GeoBlogs right here.

Of course, it would be greatly appreciated if you can visit my GeoPage too, since this is sort of an internship and finally all of us want the same thing: being famous and have a swimming pool full of beer; I promise you will be able to learn and discover more about Chicago, and whatever city I visit in the future (I will probably write as well about cities I have visited before). Also, you are hereby invited to comment or add any interesting place you know about... or to bitch about bad places too.

Let's share Chicago!
