I should have made it say "picnic table" instead of "picnic bench." It's really the table that is wider. The benches are broken up into segments, so people can easily get in and out.
Mentioned already in the comments, I'm adding this to the caption too. This photo reminds me of my first blog post in 2001, Long live long tables.
Dan Peterman's "Running Table" (1997), a 100 foot-long picnic table constructed of recycled plastic material, is the most visible of his recent works and presently shares a plaza in Millennium Park with Anish Kapoor’s Cloudgate

i tend to be a runner. i like efficiency. do it. get it done. and get it done as quickly as possible. run to the places you need to go. but i think maybe i've had it all wrong.... maybe you should walk to some of the places. because you're gonna get there all the same, and when you walk you can take in so much more of the scenery. there is a time for running and a time for walking. I'm gonna work on my walking for a while.....

One of my favorite photos from this day, the traffic guard came over and asked me what all these flamingoes were about. She even asked me if I'm the one who planted them there! It's cool how she's at the same angle as the flamingoes. When I saw her pop up in my viewfinder, I used my non-camera hand and waved while my camera hand snapped the shutter.

More like Transformer face. This was totally an Autobot's face. In fact, I bet the artist made it as one of the faces of a Transformer, but then someone else came along and said it's Beethoven's mask.
There was a long three paragraph description on the caption, but I didn't bother reading it. This is a transformer face if I ever saw one.

Happy (Heavenly) Birthday Dad. photo taken in 2006
In Memory of My Dad
If I could write a story, it would surely be one of the greatest stories I have every told. My father was a very kind and loving father. He had a heart of gold and his family meant everything to him (especially the grandkids). I could go on and on yet still have difficulty finding the right words to express how much I love and miss him every single day. I am thankful I found a love for the camera and he never said no to me taking his pictures. I am still hurting and sad but I know he is no longer suffering and he is with my mom. They are together again which is what he always wanted. He wanted to be with his wife. Pop-Pop you are loved and missed by our family. We were abundantly blessed to have had you for a such a long time. {Random Thought 1.17.2025}

It’s the evening of December 28. Dinner has been cooked and consumed, with dishes washed (mostly) and leftovers put away. I’m now sitting at my dining room table filling a notebook with random thoughts about life and love, while the Christmas tree lights glow and the music of Miles Davis swirls around the house, filling any sad or empty spaces in my head.

Today was Chicago's first sixty degree day in 2011. When I was at the beach during lunch, I had to touch the water to welcome in Spring.
I have to admit, it was strange watching the water rolling onto the shore, because it reminded me of the tsunami in Japan. Of course the waves coming in on Lake Michigan aren't from Japan. But I was imagining that they were.
