I'm in love with my hometown/Chicago's best suburb: Western Springs. I take most of my photos there, but I also find scenes worth capturing in Chicago and other suburbs...and Iowa since I seem to keep taking trips there. I'm a high school English teacher (nerd) and a happily married mom of 3. I try to avoid the ubiquitous kid pictures, at least where the Internet is concerned, so don't expect to find many in my photostream.
