Can’t claim to be a Pokémon fan, but I have invested my share of money into the phenomenon. Since, making their North American debut in 1998, I have purchased countless Pokémon cards. First for my nephews and then for my son. So, when Noah asked if we could check out the exhibit at the Field Museum and his sisters wanted to join in, I of course figured a way to fit it in before he headed off to college. I enjoyed the parallels between the Pokémon characters and real prehistoric creatures. It was quite educational.

Last night’s storm was rather intense. Lots of rain and some crazy lightening. Thankfully, I did not see any damage in the neighborhood. Just had some rather large puddles left behind. I passed this one on my way home from photographing one of my favorite families. I thought St. Ben’s reflecting in the puddle looked rather interesting. The passing cyclist was a bonus. Looks like more storms are coming tomorrow. Stay safe out there!

The family went on our first tour of Wrigley Field, yesterday. Hard to believe that we hadn’t done this sooner. Especially, considering the proximity of the ballpark to our home and the fact 5 of the 6 of us are Cubs fans. With the National League celebrating their 150th Birthday (1876-2026) it seemed like the perfect time to take the tour. We were able to see views of the ballpark that you just don’t get on game day. We learned some history and heard some interesting stories. We all left with a new appreciation for the historical, Wrigley Field (1914).

Yesterday, Chris and I celebrated our 27th Anniversary in Racine, Wisconsin. Why Racine? Why not? We learned that Racine is the French word for Root. The Root River runs through the city. We enjoyed walking around downtown Racine and taking in the historical architecture. We enjoyed seeing the public art. We peeked into Kewpee Hamburgers (only open for breakfast & lunch). It is the second oldest hamburger fast food chain in the country. Named after the Kewpie doll. We walked to the lakefront, near the marina. We spotted Elvis. We checked out Wisconsin’s second tallest lighthouse, the Wind Point Lighthouse (approaching storm dashed any chance of a picturesque sunset). Our last stop was the Firehouse 3 Museum (missed the museum being open earlier in the evening). The firehouse was active from 1882 to 1968. We enjoyed our visit to Racine!

Attended my first Special Olympics Duck Derby, today. Such a fun event to raise money for an amazing charity that supports extraordinary athletes. The turnout was incredible!

The family (minus one child who had to work) drove out to Gurnee on Wednesday to enjoy a day at Great America. It had been a couple years since our last visit, but we wanted to make sure to get this in during the park’s 50th Birthday celebration. The threat of rain kept the crowds away and as a result, the wait time was minimal. I opted to be the photographer for the day. Didn’t want to aggravate a slowly healing tailbone (injury from over 3 weeks ago). The family got on 10 rides, with a couple snack breaks in between. Not too bad for a five hour stay. Happy Birthday Great America!

I had a senior session near the Adler Planetarium, this evening. Before the session, I looked to see when I first photographed this young man. Turns out he was only 5 years old. Now he’s getting ready for his last year of high school. Wow!

Before heading home I took this shot of the skyline from the planetarium.
