Touch and Go Chess Party

On this unseasonably warm January afternoon, we really should be playing chess in front of the Art Institute.  I've spent several pleasurable afternoons at the "Touch and Go Chess Party."

The songbirds promised me this morning that springtime woud be here soon: in the meantime, enjoy!

Here's a beautiful photo of a scene many of you will recognize.  The proprietor will soon be packing up for the season: look in front of the Art Institute (or south of the Art Institute on the east side of Michigan, as in the photo).
