Chicago Stock Exchange Room In Art Institute Of Chicago
Here is the old Chicago Stock Exchange room that has been moved to the Art institute of Chicago.
I took this picture yesterday.
There were a few minutes I was in the room by myself. It was great to have the chance to look around without anybody bugging me.
Some folks would walk in the room and not have a clear sense of what it was. They’d walk out a moment later without checking it out.
Sometimes I get so tired of people that they annoy me no matter if they are around or if they are not around.
People Come From All Around To See American Gothic
People come from all around to the Art Institute of Chicago to see the famous painting American Gothic.
Here you see a crowd of such observers at the Art Institute this afternoon.
American Gothic was painted by Grant Wood.
What could be more All-American than seeing this famous painting in the great Midwestern capitol of Chicago, Illinois?
Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.
( The picture above is of the Houston Ship Channel. A narrow channel can lead to a wide sea.)
The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.
Texas Liberal began regular posting on July 25, 2006.
I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.
