We’ve had gorgeous weather this week — warm days and plenty of sunshine. I got to ride my bike to campus on Tuesday and Thursday, and as I rode through the neighborhood, I couldn’t help but appreciate the emergence of spring. The trees are blooming a bit earlier than last year. The daffodils are nearly gone and the tulips are nodding their heads in the wind.
Since I was up early this morning, I decided to take a walk through the streets of Rogers Park with my camera. I do love it here!
A few things you’ll recognize from last year —
- the snow fence on the beach is being dismantled
- the tulips at the Frank Lloyd Wright house are blooming
- the green puff trees are fully puffed
- my favorite beach trees provide a great frame for the downtown skyline
Enjoy!

As usual, your pictures are wonderful! I’m so glad I got to share Chicago with you for the short time I visited — your eye really focuses on beauty and your photos convey the message to us clearly! Thanks so much for sharing — I’m glad you’re getting to cycling weather. I love you — “keep those cards and letters coming in!”
