Jumping from the Skyline to the Clouds Janet Kuypers 7/26/13 Joining commuters driving toward the Chicago Loop, I watched majestic skyscrapers frame the skyline, as I witnessed over Lake Michigan early morning clouds — thin at the top each cloud looked like a snow-capped mountain, framing this flat-land city, surrounding the skyscraper skyline with that sun-kissed stratosphere. The clouds almost looked like shadowed drawings, touched by the hand of God.
