More Retroactive Blogging Part II: Christmas Show at the Chicago Botanical Gardens



Chicago's Botanical Gardens rank among the best in the nation. For the past few years the folks their have been putting up a dazzling display of Christmas lights along with re-creating several famous Chicago landmarks using nothing but unprocessed bark, sticks, leaves, and other organic material. Wish I had a better camera and a I tripod for those lights..... Quite impressive, quite unique, quite Chicago nonetheless.

A system of rails and model trains runs throughout the Chicago display.





Mini-Wrigley Field. Bet the Cubs couldn't the World Series

in this stadium either.
