Here are a few places I've been walking to for chores on this #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay

We've been house hunting and this one's yard had a nice monarch in the yard. Sadly this house had issues with radon, womp. At least the butterflies aren't affected.

This little guy even followed me in the car. We let it out once we stopped at the next house.

Next we went shopping and I noticed some really expensive black trumpet mushrooms, this bag was like $25.

Now its time for a break. We went to a German restaurant for lunch and they had lots of hand carved wooden kookoo clocks.

Next up is an office outting to a rooftop restaurant in Chicago. They basically do cookout food and there are various games like beer pong and cornhole.

Next we had to drop off one of my cooworkers at his apartment. As it turns out his place is infested with pigeons lol. They coo around all night too.

One morning on my way to the train there was a nice sunrise in the sky.

Now today it is quite scary looking. Lets hope no tornados happen.

The lake walks are always happening and the boathouse looks nice in the evening. Soon its going to get too dark to take pictures.

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)

Ah so that's what that flower is called. It really seems to attract the butterflies, if we ever can find a house we'll need to plant lots of them.

What a very cool variety of images I love those cuckoo clocks

I hope no tornados formed

Thanks for joining the Wednesday Walk :)

The tornadoes rarely form this high up in the state, in the south half of the state they are common. It will probably just downpour and flood people's basements.

They charge up in the open fields in Illinois, the more trees around the less chance they have to build up enough power.

Gotta cut back on buying black trumpets if you are gonna make that house payment work 😉 maybe I could supply you with some black trumpets but you are on your own on the mortgage payments

Haha yeah you could make a killing with those black trumpets, 25 bucks for just a handful lol. They seem even more expensive than the morels. If I go with the infested radon house then I could keep buying the trumpets...

I always thought the radon thing was overdone but then I don't have a young child to think of. They just want to sell you one of those little fans that suck the air out of the basement and keep the radon gas level from building up. Good luck with the house hunt. Its always fun but also stressful. Maybe a good recession will come along to drop interest rates 😁

Oomph yeah I'm not in a super rush to buy but the area I was looking at used to have a thorium processing plant that contaminated everything. So now I'm looking in entirely new areas.

In short, amazingly beautiful butterflies and flowers that you have photographed.

Thanks, that butterfly was too busy with the flower to care about me getting close.
