Bicycling through Skokie Lagoons

Filled with anger, frustration, and hopelessness at what's happening in the country, I started out on a bike ride that turned into a nearly 30 mile/48km four-hour ride. Toward the end of the ride, I ended up in this lovely spot and was calmed by the power of a serene scene.

Beautiful scene. Ironic to find such calm during these times in Skokie of all places! They've got a bit of history, but it's reassuring to see this.

What a wonderful sight, so glad that you were able to calm down seeing this peaceful setting. It must work wonders for the soul during these horrific times.
