A Beautiful Day to Fly, But…
… a bit too windy. Everything was looking great on the way out today, and our small group was excited. Just walking into the hanger I felt exhilarated and felt like this might be a place i start seeing on a regular basis. We walked up the counter and filled up what must have been […]

A Fading Relic
The Ford/Wyoming Drive-In opened in 1950 in the heyday of drive-in movie theaters. At it’s peak in 1958, there were around 4000 drive-in’s in the US, many with multiple screens.

Coming Soon to a Backyard in Wheaton
Thanks to a generous donation from Grandma and Grandpa Tomchak, a new playground set will be arriving soon at the Tomchak household. And I’m sure, it will only take a few minutes for dad to setup!

Weekend Photos
We had a great time this past weekend in the city. Aside form the usual walking around we made a stop at a Chicago Fire House where the Firemen were more than happy to let the boys get on the truck. Andrew was especially excited and kept saying “cool”. We also got to see several […]

Daddy Daughter Day
On Wednesday Sydney decided she wanted to spend the day with me while I ran some errands. The first stop was SuperCuts downtown where she met Sherri, the woman that’s been cutting my hair for over 12 years now. Then we went for a walk outside since we were downtown in Chicago. Sydney told me […]

It’s time to pack up and head back to Chicago. With a little luck the trip back will be a few hours shorter than the trip out. We fly to San Francisco, and after a 4 hour layover head to Chicago. The fun all starts tomorrow morning when we leave at 9am (that’s 6pm the […]

Sydney Darling Harbor, By Night
The photo above was taken from my room and is a good representation of the view that I have (click on it for a larger version of the photo). The others were taken while doing a night walk around the harbor. Keep in mind it’s dark by 5pm here, so you don’t have to wait […]

Saturday was a day of leisure, here are a few of the photos and you can find more on Flickr.

St. Spyridon College
After being here less than 24 hours we were off on our first shoot to cover a Lions Project at a local elementary school. I was there to take photos throughout the day while the crew recorded interviews and shot b-roll of the children. On the way back from the shoot, our gracious Lions hosts/travel […]
