I drove 20 hours from North of Minnesota to Illinois, and passed through Wisconsin. I do miss and love that country. I have such great memories from those days. I'm sorry I havent posted this in personal tab...

Be glad you're not there now. It's very cold and getting colder. We're expecting single digit(F) temperatures all along the great lakes for at least the next week.

Yes Chicago hasn't changed much in the past years...You would like Navy Pier...in the summer time...Did you take the cruise on the river that tells the history of the city thru architecture??

The windy city, I presume. Lovely picture! My SIL had her first child at 20, I was 30, my elder daughter 35 and my younger will be almost 38 when she gets her first. So I wouldn't hazard a guess about your age. :)

Well, I left my heart in Chicago :). I loved the color of the waters of Lake Michigan which I thought it was because of chemicals, later on, I discovered that was a natural color. How beautiful! As I said, I miss it there...Thank you everyone for commenting on this post...Hugs&blessings, Yoriko

That is Chicago. I lived there my first one year in US. My biological father he worked at the Japanese Consolate and I wanted to know him, so I moved there to study. The city will dye the water to green during St. Patrick's day. During winter, it is cold, but the street hot dogs are the best in the world.

I've been to Japanese Consulate in Chicago! This is a small world!!!
by ssarner 14 Jan 2009
Where were you there? I was there in 1987. There is Japanese community there too.
