Santee's Burial Ground

To the right of this path you can see where he now rests. Looking at the spot in the daylight was quite a surprise. Considering I dug in near pitch darkness with the only light provided from a flashlight app I downloaded on my iPhone. I honestly felt the sense of digging my own grave. Meaghan and Angella provided some encouragement but it was not fun. Good deed of the month, so don't ask for a thing. I stopped by to snap a few photos of the site and dropped a couple seed bombs. Hopefully some pretty growth will pop up foe the fella. 

At least he has good views. Better than the white walls of captivity he was in before. Sadly he may be happier now. Not sure why sunsets are a reoccurring theme on this blog recently.. I'll look into that.

City Market

With time to spare before my flight home I spent the last day in Chicago meandering the streets aimlessly. With no goal or destination in particular I was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon the Chicago Sister Cities International Festival. Held in front of the Daley Plaza that day's event coincided with the Farmers Market which is regularly held at the same location every Thursday. Your typical Farmers Market vendors could be found featuring jewelry, produce, soaps, flowers, and cheese. What stuck my complete interest was the excess in food vendors. Each City presented its finest fare in a quick grab and eat style. Ukraine, Mexico, Italy, Korea, and Poland come to mind when I think who was represented. I gave each vendor a quick pass and soaked in every menu pushing my way amongst the suits and high heals. I couldn't help but notice the line at the Warsaw, Poland stand and then I caught a glimpse of the plates being handed out. Done exactly in Chicago style hotdog fashion this attraction featured and lovely polish sausage. I waited patiently in line and enjoyed tunes of traditional Dutch music and dancing being showcased on the stage nearby until I was due up. Bravo! Well worth the wait.  I spent the better half of my afternoon talking to different vendors and taking in the live music, great way to end an awesome trip.
