Goose Island – real men make their own islands…

Today I managed a 4 mile walk to Calumet Photo (located on Goose Island) and back again. The great part is that not only did I do it in an hour ten, but I was able to work in some photography and picked up a Holga 120N from Calumet.

I'm coming up on the one year anniversary of the start of these lunch-hour walks. I'm amazed at how much of the immediate downtown area I've been able to see and am humbled by how much more there is to explore.
