QUICK, QUICKER, QUICKEST

Quick is a  word meaning rapid, moving fast or doing something in a short time.



This past week on a girls trip to Chicago a friend Julie and I walked out onto the Skydeck Ledge--a glass observation deck at the Willis Tower.  103 floors up, 1451 feet high  and it was a QUICK  ride  

This building used to be know as the "Sears Tower".   It is the second largest building in the USA and 8th largest in the world.





We didn't become queasy although two ladies in the group would not make the quest.

I took  lots of pictures of our trip, we spent quite awhile looking at the city from this perspective.

Great Q post. I didn't even realize that it wasn't the Sears tower anymore. I'm always WAY out of date. Carver, ABC Wed. Team

Heights and I are not the greatest of friends.
Love Chicago but I think I would be chicken to go out on the Skydeck.
Amazing view of the fab. city.

Oh Ann how brave you are! I have a fear of heights and would never stand on a glass bottom even if the ground was only one metre under me.
But the sight is spectacular!

That is an amazing view of Chicago and a wonderful photograph! I also have no fear of heights and wouldn't have to quell any queasiness :) Thanks for a fun post, Ann!

What a fabulous view and so brave of you to take the ride.
I'm afraid that I would quake with terror if I took that ride,
