Looking west on 35th Street toward the intersection at South California Avenue. Chicago Illinois USA. May 2007.

I took this photo in May of 2007 during the begining stages of the afternoon and evening rush hour commuting period. A northbound CTA Nova transit bus,has just recieved a green light on South California Avenue, and is resuming it's journey across town.

The corner sign for a nearby fast food establishment known as "Superchicken" caught My attention. I grew up in Chicago during the 1960's and 70's...and have fond Saturday morning memorys watching a classic Jay Ward Productions cartoon called "Superchicken". Although the sign doesn't look anything like the cartoon character "Superchicken" ( Buck! Buck! Buck! Buck!) The name brought Me a smile and happy memorys nonetheless. This local Superchicken character looks like He's on Steroids.

The Superchicken cartoon theme song can be downloaded on My links page
