Everything is so green these days! I took the 213 to Highland Park and just looked out the window all the way. One of the advantages of not driving is that you get to stare out the window. I love it! From the bus or train you get the best view of the seasonal changes in Chicago. Long ago, I took the 147 bus downtown from Howard St. and enjoyed the view of the Oak Street beach. I wonder if the greenery will last or fade early, as in some years?
