1. overlooking the fields, towards the sears tower. it’s easy to forget how far south this park is!

2. the boathouse.

3. courtyard, gratuitous handlebar shot (oooooh yeaaaaah)

4. soccer game

5. i rode down to the boathouse overlooking the lagoon and walked out onto the dock. quack quack. it’s nice down here because you can see the cars winding through the park

6. i walked up to the overlook and saw the silhouette of a goose sitting in one of these things. i laughed pretty hard - HAHA, stupid boathouse builders, taking the time to put a fake  goose stone chillin (literally) in one of these cups. i walked closer and this thing jumped up and nearly murdered me! i took that as my leave.

7. i never realized how huge or fantastically great this park really is. tonight was chilly and dim, but there were still lots of people hanging out and playing all around. it may have been cold, but everything smelled amazing, as well. also, tacos.

8. i was also woefully unaware of how close the park is to my apartment. if this were ancient rome, i’d call this an aqueduct, but i don’t think they use a different name for it in humboldt park.

home again, home again.
