City - Chicago, IL - Wintertime in Chicago 1942 ポストカード

Colorized photo from 1942, Feb Original title: Michigan Ave Photographer: John Vachon Location: 747 S Michigan Ave, Chicago, Illinois Any chance I get, I will rant about winter, I hate winter. I really hate the cold, how slippery the snow is, I hate suddenly looking at the sky with people looking down asking me if I'm alright. And I'm like, what do mean an I alright? Why wouldn't I be alright? Then realize I'm laying on the sidewalk, not sure how I got there, then remembered, that I was walking and saw what I thought was a puddle of water, and it seems it wasn't. As I slowly sit up, trying to regain my balance, I can't help but admire how pretty it looks. It's quiet, soft, and just makes the area look a little more magical, until that dog with the full bladder comes by. Kids love winter, people driving in snow, don't like winter. Today is probably not a school day, not in Chicago anyway, Florida probably. If you are wondering we are, we are admiring Michigan Ave, most of these buildings still exists, a few small ones removed. You can't see it off in the distance but the Wrigley building is down the street.
