Another beautiful day with the Lake very calm and the sun shining ever so brightly off of the water - a sunglasses day for sure. Took the El and a bus in to work today and, since Friday is usually even more of a dress casual day than lthe rest of the week, I wore jeans and sandals. Stepping off the bus near 60th and Kenwood, I experienced the pleasant sensation of the cool dew on the grass.

Expecting some visitors from MO this evening and unfortunately the forecast calls for rain tomorrow and Sunday. A bummer. Along with all this cooler than normal temps we have been having.

Reading about all of the good press Obama is getting from his speeches in the Middle East and Paris. I think that he can help set up a situation that is conducive to agreement at somee point. It is good to have him in the White House at this time. We all have to pull together and do our parts to reach workable solutions for our pressing dilemmas.

More later, and please take care.
