Alright, having a few spare hours yesterday granted me some time to drive around and snap some shots of a few towns. Of course I needed ALOT more time to cover more ground, but in 2.5 hours I covered areas of Wheaton, Naperville, St. Charles, Geneva, West Chicago and Wasco. I tried to show some pics of neighborhoods, downtowns, houses, etc, etc. Like I said, there just isnt enough time to cover the cities I wanted to do, so I guess these will have to do for now. When I finished uploading them on the computer and naming them, it categorized the photos alphabetically, so now theyre out of whack, so youll notice alot of skipping around, sorry! I also shot all of these from my car, so none of them are special photos in any sort of way, just snapshots. Hopefully these pics will help paint a decent picture of the far west burbs. Enjoy!
