Chicago: The Windy City

by in Chrome Postcards, Illinois, Tourism

It does look a little windy today

“Although known as the Windy City for over a century, Chicago was not named for its weather. The name was coined by the New York Sun editor, Charles Dana, in reference to the city’s long-winded politicians.”  Published and distributed by The Postcard Factory.

This card comes to me from chuckreno, who writes: “Greetings from Chicago! Hope things are great in the South! It’s FREEZING UP HERE!”  Sorry, I can’t spare what little warm weather we’re getting down here.

Freakin' hilarious.
