I just love living here.  This is downtown Chicago, at the corner of Michigan and Washington, across from wonderful Millennium Park.  We were on our way to a night-time performance in the park – possibly opera related? Walking here through the Loop reminded me why I love to live in the city: people from everywhere in the world have chosen to come here, with their ideas and their cooking and their ways of living; everybody has some place to be; and here we all are, all in this together.
