Great photo, but should use “Capitol” since you are referring to the building.

Illinois now has a reason to look up.

We can only go upwards after the last four years…

Looks better from below than above.

A new day, looking towards the heavens and seeing hope…

The credit rating ought to be upgraded with the capital looking so good.

Optimism

Man that’s a great photo. I’ve always been too timid to get down on the floor to try it myself. I’d look ridiculous trying that in a suit, but Sanchez captures it perfectly here. Well done. Somebody should make postcards or posters or something from this. Really cool.

It’s one of those magic eye things. Stare at the center and after a few minutes and you’ll see a magic beanstalk grow and pay back what we borrowed from the pension funds.

Btw the cleaning they did 15 years ago after they banned smoking really makes this a great tourist site on a sunny day.

When you are at rock bottom, you can only look up.

The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went. As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them

Ezekiel 1:16-18 (KJV)
