Today was amazing.
I have been in Chicago since Friday, kicking off my holiday vacation visiting an old friend.
Living in Florida has made me really miss living up here
The people, the culture, the architecture.
I made sure i stopped by one of my favorite houses.....
Frank Lloyd Wrights first house and studio.

This was above the dinning room table.


This was the "family room", set up for Christmas.

His studio.

Please take into consideration, I was forced to use my 2 megapixel camera phone to sneak these pics of the interior of the house. He is still my favorite architect, he didn't follow the norm of architecture in his day. he took chances, didn't have any formal education and was simply amazing.

And these are a couple of places i ate.

This is an amazing German restaurant in downtown Chi-Town.

This was a wicked good Scandinavian joint that we got breakfast, eggs Benedict. it was unreal.

And finally, this is my favorite sign in downtown Chicago.
