Sad to see the news that Jim Lovell has passed away. If you get the chance, the Adler Planetarium has an exhibit with memorabilia donated by the Lovell family. Also, they named the street after him.

Love spotting all the Chicago scenery in Ironheart. My favorite so far is Riri Williams hanging out on the grassy area outside the Adler Planetarium because that's my favorite picture spot. I took this picture from that area in 2012.

TIL that there is a patron saint of headaches. Saint Denis is thought to be the first bishop of Paris in the 3rd century. He was beheaded by a Roman soldier, but legend has it that he picked up his severed head and walked for several miles while preaching a sermon.
