sky high anxiety

So I have lived in Chicago for most of my life- and until this week had never been up to the observation deck of the Sears Tower (I will NEVER call it the Willis Tower... Sorry...I just can't.

But this week I braved it. Wow. It is high up.

Aside from the ears popping and shear terror for those of us afraid of heights- the views were stunning. I went on a clear day in early Autumn that afforded views that stretched for miles.

Now there is also a ledge that you can walk out on and look down... I am not nearly brave enough for that. Maybe next year.
