GO WITH THESE DANCING HOT DOGS!!!???
Stay with me...Explanation to follow...:)
Our recent trip to the midwest
was actually a trip "home"...
a bit of a "working vacation", if you will,
visiting the place(s) where we lived
before moving to Arizona four years ago.
Scott and I both have family in Illinois.
Scott's dad and his sister and her family live"out in the country"...
and
my brother Mark and his wife live north of Chicago along the lake.
So,
How do those two sketches above... go together???
Simple...
While visiting my brother Mark, who happens to also be our dentist!!! LOL
I completed the top sketch...lead free...waiting in one of his exam rooms.
The second sketch...
"SUPERDAWG" is a "must visit" place if one happens
(click here to see what I mean)
to be anyway near the northwest side of Chicago...
which we were...at sunset...right after our dental exams...:)
The place is world famous and a great "slice" of Chicago food culture.
Originally,
we planned to stay in Illinois for three weeks...
to visit family, take care of appointments, prepare our home for winter
and the like.
We were busy every single minute of every single day it seemed.
Extending our stay an additional week was indeed a brilliant decision.
My travel journal will take you along
to all the places we visited, appointments we kept,
and
through all those crazy chores and busy mundane daily stuff we did.
I hope you are enjoying my this visual diary of our "midwest travlin!"
She was a joy to fill! :)
Hope my "splainin" these paradoxical drawings helped! :)
