golden arches. valley.

valley blending in with the fall sunset shadows & colors.

last week chicago experienced, what we would call, an indian summer. it reached almost 80 degrees, which for chicago, in october is a miracle!!! {we've seen snow by this date some years} with the warm weather we lived it up as the last chance to wear our short sleeved tees & summer wedges to dinner with some friends. of course we had to take our jackets too because the weatherman predicted a 30 degree drop by the end of the sunset; and boy was he right. the midwest can be one tricky s.o.b.

the famous saying goes, "if you don't like the weather here in the midwest, just give it thirty minutes, it will change!" ha. so true.

that's all we've got for today.
happy monday. 
make it a great one.
