So...Chicago

Here I am in Illnois.  Full of snow this place is.  A beautiful sky, creamy light yellow grey snow sky.  There are fireplaces, and red wine.  Tractor trailor trucks thrum down the highway outside and then sunset happens.  In the middle of the afternoon the sky explodes in color.  The snow has stopped falling and purple and orange throw themselves to the horizon.  I gaze over the highway, the parking lots, the hotels and the bustle of folks so far below me.  There it is...Sunset.  The same as it ever was, reminding me that where this life takes me I will always appreciate what this great earth provides.
