Last night in the middle of my Beginning Wheel class, we heard someone mention Northern Lights happening. I had heard nothing about it. But a bunch of us ran up to the roof of Lillstreet… and this was our colorful view! Not the strongest… but pretty cool nonetheless! Good call… rooftop for the win!

Have I mentioned lately that Autumn is my favorite season? Not only for all of the gorgeous Fall colors… but it seems like we also get some pretty darn AMAZING sunrises!!! More frequently in Fall than in other seasons. And I’m here for it!!! Loving that our Fall season, colored trees & dramatic sunrises are hanging on longer than usual here in Chicago.

It turned out to be another gorgeous Fall day. But it started with a LOT OF CLOUDS!!! Crazy-cool clouded drama along the lakefront… unsure if we would ever see the sun?! But gradually the sun made its way through the clouds… finding a little opening. Great colors… great sunrise… great surprise!
