Winter has returned to Chicago! Temperatures have dipped into the 20’s and once again everyone is all bundled up. Still, after a good solid week of strong, 2 mile lunch time walks, I wasn’t going to let a little cold weather get in my way. And I’m glad I didn’t since the sights I witness along the way are every bit as much a reason for my lunch time excursions as the need for exercise.
One of the nicer things about this winter has been the variety of stylish boots the ladies have been wearing. While spying a pair of these on the return leg of my walk, I noticed what I’ll call “Chicago Rouge”. This was the delightful rosy coloration of the cheeks of the lady to whom the boots were attached. She had a chill induced blush that, in her case, perfectly complimented her looks and attire. Sometimes I love winter in Chicago!
