Plane, Train, & Automobile

In my time off I've been touring some of the Upper Midwest's better known M-cities (Moline here I come!), but I took a break and jumped on the Hot Train down to Chicago last weekend. It turned out to not only be M-less, but also cell-less. Good news—it still is actually possible to rendezvous at an appointed time without the use of a cellphone.

That's just what I did with Jeremy and Rachel Sunday afternoon.

Then we went for a long walk down this even longer pier.

At the end, we found the place someone had decided was a good spot to lockup their bike. I want to know what happened after they used 2 u-locks to secure it to this rusty metal rod (double lock!). Where'd they go, and how did so many pieces of their bike manage to give them the slip before they got back?

Then I set my camera to it's 1930's mode for one more shot of the skyline.
