The Summer Stench Approaching Chicago
I walked Sheila to work this morning and guess what I smelt? Summer!
Yes, as we walked by the expensive restaurants on Rush Street, we both got a whiff of Summer.
Like I explained last Summer, this city does stink in certain places and it isn’t because of trash or the sewer, it’s because of horses. Those ‘romantic’ carriages the rich (or the tourist) uses to be towed around the city stop at every stop light or sign - and pee. The pee sits there all night long and gets added to the next day and the next day and the next day. In the height of the Summer you will walk down that street and by the kerb you will see a pool of warm, brown, pee that is baking in the Sun and becomes absolutely gross-smelling. Yuck!
