Since the day i left Milwaukee...............

I was looking thro' my old collection, when I chanced upon these, shot in one of the most beautiful li'l downtowns I have seen on the east coast: Milwaukee. It was the first snow of the season and with festive season already on, the town had this charming feel about it. I guess, i am smitten by the place coz of the good time I had there during last Thanksgiving. I met a dear childhood friend in Chicago after eons, the road trip we had taken from Florida to Milwaukee had taken us to places never heard before and I had my first shot at roulette with winnings enuf to buy us pizzas and gas to Chicago!!! :) :) P.S. : This blog wasn't up and running then ...................explains the nostalgia, i guess. P.S. 1: They were all taken from a moving car , thats why the framing is all haywired!!!
