Still in Illinois - MyShadowProductions #142

Hello again and like the title says, I am still in Illinois :)

First of all, MyShadow has been joined a few times by Sam’sShadow, all his idea when he noticed the sun at his back and the resulting shadows: I know what you are thinking, “great minds think alike” :)

Here are a few late summer photos along a walking path in Oswego, IL:

I am in Yorkville, IL now and click here for a movie/video from my photos at the Bicentennial Riverfront Park.

The Fox River flows East to West as it passes through Yorkville, but generally goes North to South.

The Scarecrow Walk reminded me of a day at work when I was trying to get feedback on a new laborer. One foreman said “he makes a great Scarecrow” :)

That’s all for now, but:

Stay tuned, more to come !!

Visiting Illinois - MyShadowProductions #141

Hola Amigos ! 

No, I am not in Mexico or Guatemala, I just wanted to use a little Spanish :)

I have been visiting Illinois for a few weeks, family reunion, family visits, etc.

It is always nice to re-see the area of my birth and most of the years of my life.

Just a few quick photos to represent that thought:

Took a great, relaxing walk at Lincoln Memorial Garden along the shore of Lake Springfield. In the Garden there are MANY benches for resting and they include sayings that are worth pondering. The majority are from Springfield, IL’s most (arguably) famous resident Abraham Lincoln. It seems Abe had a lot to say and said it well in a few sentences :) One example:

I hope to have other photos, thoughts, movie/videos to share soon, just wanted to keep in touch and share some Illinois !!

Have a great day and Hello September !!
