The kids down the street with the portable basketball hoop (one of the little boys once told me I "look very nice")
Lilac bushes
Hipster running fashions (Dude, isn't it hot running with all those dreds? Put them in a ponytail!)
The sno-cone guy from Coco (who cheers me on)
Elegant old buildings
Ducks (like Ed and Dolores) in the pond
Green grass and big old trees
Grafitti
Tee ball games; dads coaching their kids
The same people running (we pass each other doing laps in opposite directions; one girl waved at me today as we ran by each other)
The Night Ministry truck helping the homeless
Kids swarming all over the massive playground
Old Puerto Rican guys smoking cigarettes on the corner
Community garden plots
Art at the Peanut Gallery
People smoking pot (well, this one I smell more than I see)
Really pale people (gotta love spring in Chicago)
People of ALL different shapes and sizes getting in their workout and enjoying the weather
