"I think that's how Chicago got started. A bunch of people in New York said, 'Gee, I'm enjoying the crime and poverty, but it just isn't cold enough. Let's go west.'" -Richard Jeni
Living in the world's greatest city--minus the weather, although global warmer seems to be making the winter more tolerable the last 5 years.
I road trip often and pretty much everywhere...Can't seem to sit still for very long when the weather is nice....After 20 years of crisscrossing the US, I have started writing travel logs to keep track of everything we have seen....

"Shannon has a photstream that is varied , interesting and beautiful . From his "My rambling Writing set " that highlights articles that he has written for the "Ohmynews" to "Wildlife and Flowers" he has a photostream that will delight everyone.( I like his macro shots the best) If your looking for I laugh I suggest you check out his "Funnies and others " collection. He is a wonderful photographer and a great writer, a very talented person indeed. Keep up the excellent work Shannon and thanks for being a great contact."

"Shannon is one of the very first Flickr friends I had the pleasure of finding on here. I love clicking over here to see his wonderful photos and to read his always enlightening descriptions and knowledge for each great one. I always learn something new from the information he provides with each visual treasure. His charming comments on my photos always bring on a big smile. Not only I am happy to call him a contact, I am happy to call him a friend.. I look forward to seeing many more of his great photos. :-)"
