For ten years, I've dedicated one day a month to visiting a place that is original, unique -- and maybe quirky.
Because my friends are not as "feistily curious" as I am, I don't invite them.
But what a joy! I've been to the 31st Street Beach and saw where a naked woman was carved in the sand. I've been to one of the most hard-to-find pubs that looks empty on the outside but once you open the door, you're greeted by an explosion of wonderfulness: lights beaming, enthusiastic staff and the drinks and food are unbelievable.
Of course, I've seen the Shit Fountain and a little hidden away plus pond behind Lincoln Park Zoo. And yes, I've been to the Bahai Temple, I've seen Harold Washington's grave and I've wandered around some eerie -- but fun -- places.
I could go on but just have to add that this has made me interesting, lively and Happy.
What more could you ask for?
