We’re enjoying a colorful fall here in Chicago, and I’ve been making a point to get outside and soak it in.
This month’s calendar features a quiet oasis tucked behind a busy street in Lincoln Park. The Alfred Caldwell Lily Pond is a tranquil, stunning spot in any season.
Wishing you a few moments to savor the season this month!
