Yesterday I was planning to paint. I had cleared my calendar and gotten chores out of the way for a blissful day of working in the studio. But you know what they say about the best laid plans. My daughter is running in the Chicago Half Marathon this Sunday. One of the requirements is to pick up your shirt and running number at Navy Pier on the Friday before the Marathon. She didn't feel like going by herself, so she talked me into going with her.It was a beautiful fall day. We had lunch on Navy Pier, picked up her things, and then I spied the Smith Museum of Stained Glass Windows near the end of the pier! What an unexpected beautiful experience. These images are some of windows produced by Tiffany.
If you ever get to Chicago, try to visit this exquisite jewel of a museum. And the best part is that it's free!Photography by Jessica M. Goodwin
