Wednesday Walk - A Boring Commute Walk

Here is a typical boring commute walk to work for this #wednesdaywalk

I usually end up in Chicago early in the morning because I don't like the typical commute times when everything is packed full of people. Early in the morning the city is basically empty and desolate.

Some of these apartment buildings' residents haven't even turned their lights on yet as I arrived to the station.

Here's one lonely person waiting for an early train to leave the station. They're doing a reverse commute from the city to the suburbs.

As I leave the train into the station it becomes a commuter race. I tend to walk fast so I have to weave in and out of the slow walkers. This would be impossible if I arrived here at normal commuter time. This whole place is fully packed with people walking at a snail's pace.

Here's the Chicago river early in the morning. So far this November has been warm and its nice to stop and take pictures without freezing your hands off.

Here is the CME Group twin tower building. I wonder how many people here looked the other way at FTX's shady dealings as there were some regulators here that should have caught the scam.

Just a few early risers heading off to work on the bridges.

Now I'm stuck at the light in the center of the financial district in Chicago. To the left is the CME building to the right is the Sears/Willis Tower and up top is the Swab building. The Deloitte building is center right and at the bottom is a curved general office building possibly a We Work building. Maybe rent will be low there now.

That's all for now, time to actually start working lol.

I like to draw and play an assortment of stringed instruments and drums. Prepare for lots of mushrooms and nature photography on this channel as well.
