Re: GESO - Yet another Chicago view
Ann, Yeah, so I'm six weeks behind in some of my list viewing... This gallery is so good, and so Annsanesque, that I just had to comment. The broken-down bus, Amy's Cafe, and the view from the El are my favorites, but they're all good.

I can't remember if we called that uptown when I lived there... there was just the Near North and the North Side - um, I think.

I was there with my parents to hear the then famous chanteuse - Hildegarde... . Also liked your Camera store one a lot - it worked with that HDR stuff nicely. Looks like you didn't get to the Wrigley building lobby when I met you on the bridge on Saturday (or you just didnt like your shots of it) I am having more adventures, btw there appears to be a strong possibility I got bitten by a deer tick (Lyme disease tick) on the grassy slope on May 3rd... Doctor tomorrow. The rash is gone, but I photo'ed before it disappeared. Im still rather laid back about it I had such a very wonderful time!

Re: GESO - Yet another Chicago view
Great stuff Ann! I remember having lunch at Fields. Good memories. I also remember Jim's Polish Sausage stand when it was on the corner of Halsted and Maxwell. It was literally just a stand then, rather than a store front. As teenagers we used to take the Halsted bus up north to Maxwell Street after school, and Jim's was always the first stop. I was standing on that corner eating one of his Polish sausages when I heard that Kennedy had been shot in Dallas. Paul On May 18, 2010, at 5:17 PM, Jack Davis wrote: Nice, Ann!

Re: GESO - Yet another Chicago view
Another Maxwell Street story. When I was 15 some friends and I went down there and bought imitation US Navy rings for a buck or two. We used those to prove we were 17 so we could get into the burlesque theater on State Street to see Blaze Starr. Those were the days.
