The dogs see a rabbit across the street. They stood still for a long time, watching.
A Bedlington terrier and an Airedale terrier stand at attention, looking to the left. Each is on a tight leash. It’s night.

A dog on a walk
A dog made of chalk
The sidewalk has a chalked images of a cute dog, cat heads, a sun with rays, and other shapes like eyes, in pink, yellow, and blue. A grey Bedlington Terrier on a pink leash is across from the dog image.

In the alley, someone is giving away a clock, a camels in the desert cross-stitch, and a fabric painting of dogs playing poker.

Dumpster art.
An originally-green dumpster in an alley has been painted with a night scene of a Chicago elevated train positioned horizontally across the top of the side of the dumpster. It also includes the structure of the elevated tracks and the space under the tracks. Brown and black, with some yellow for light.

SNAIL KNIGHT
Sidewalk chalk art. The words SNAIL KNIGHT. A yellow snail with long eye stems. Each eye is a pink dot. Orange spiral shell. Pink castle with multiple sections on top of the shell. A flag flying from the tallest roof peak. A Bedlington terrier has its back to the drawing.

So much bad news.
A grey front porch with a brown welcome mat, potted plant with some pink flowers on the deck, and a newspaper. The Chicago Tribune newspaper folded up for home delivery is on top of part of the potted plant. A hand holding some green leaves that were broken off by the newspaper. A white shoe is in the background.

It’s pretty easy to report an issue in Maps. Find the place. Tap More. Tap Report an Issue. Select Name is wrong. Enter the correct name.

Snowing in Chicago!
A Bedlington Terrier is in a black coat. There’s a pink leash. The dog is standing in the deck of a wooden front porch. A light layer of snow covers the parkway and the parked vehicles in the street. It’s dark outside. Falling snow is visible against the light from a street light.

When Tony’s Chocoloney is on sale and the vegan (and best) bar is sold out - it’s a canyon of longing.
A grocery store shelf with the price tag but the product is sold out. The space where chocolate bars would be stocked is empty. To the left and right of that space are lines of different chocolate bars.

It feels like there might be a good explanation for the seeming discrepancy between “Product of Peru” and “Grown in USA” but I don’t know what it is.
A package of blueberries with a North Bay Produce label that says “Product of Peru” next to a sign that says “Grown in USA.”
