A repeat of a previous #TrainTrackTuesday photographed at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, IL. USA. The smell of the burning coal reminded me of the air I breathed as a kid on the northwest side of Chicago. This decapod is relegated to a museum piece operating a couple weekends a month in season.

I'm in northern Illinois. Early January. It's 49 degrees f outside with a light rain, about 68 degrees inside.
I just saw a live mosquito in our house. What the hell?
I never planned on living in Florida but in looks like that is what we see coming in the next year. Our Tallahassee daughter will keep an eye on us.
Downside: No good hot dogs, Italian beef, and suspect pizza.
Upside: New water to fish with a grandson, new photography subjects, and more time with my wife.

Seven sessions of plasma pharisis completed. They might let me go home tomorrow.
Did you know they can *completely* filter your blood? It takes a week total and you have to be in a hospital for them to do it?
I just found out about it.

Basically, we did nothing today. Feels right.

I was in my late teens in '68 and remember the seeing live on tv during the police riot in Grant Park, the anti-war demonstrators chanting
"THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING!
THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING!"
Now, the whole world is watching Chicago again, this time witnessing in real time facisism taking over the city and streets that I grew up on.
I haven't lived in the city for many years but it's still *very* personal.
