Last Saturday night we headed North to West Lakeview for a birthday celebration and noticed an odd sight as we passed The Wit: practice sessions for the Skyline Plunge!
We toddled over Sunday morning to watch a bit of the event which, to my eye, was difficult to distinguish from the “practice session”.
From my lowly perch at street level on the corner of State and Lake a couple of us decided next year’s plunge should take place in the Great Chicago Canyon on LaSalle Street. Spiderman-styled spandex suits for the participants would be super cool!
A, possibly, confused hotel guest with an excellent view of the event.
Rappelling a minor “Chicago Canyon” wall.
A little lost back here in Seattle….after Googling it, found theWit is a hotel in Chicago? Named for a book called Wit which I hadn’t heard of, either…..
Ah, right…context. Yes, The Wit is a hotel at the corner of State and Lake in the Loop. Nice place to stay should you find yourself in Chicago.
Hope you are well! Have a great weekend!
Note: Added a link to The Wit and fixed a couple of “pre-coffee/proof reading” typos…
Thanks for helping me out! I am having coffee now, too…..it’s raining here.
