Doors Open Milwaukee

During Doors Open Milwaukee, I decided to visit the US Bank observation deck and Marquette's St. Joan of Arc Chapel. At the US Bank building, my main interest was to look at my apartment from the top. The top middle picture shows my building from the top of the observation deck. Every night the US Bank Building obstructs my view of the horizon from my apartment. I wanted to switch the viewpoint by seeing how my own building measured up to the US Bank's perspective.

Afterwards, I took the bus to the St. Joan of Arc Chapel at Marquette. I heard that this was a place where you could experience a holy stone of some sort, so I was pretty interested in checking out. Legend has it that St. Joan of Arc supposedly prayed on this stone and kissed it, and ever since it has been a few degrees colder than the stones around it. The stone in question is featured first in the bottom row of pictures, and it is the flat bottom of the little cubby in the wall. I was encouraged to feel the two "stones" on either side of it before feeling the St. Joan of Arc Stone. The stone did feel a little colder, but perhaps it could have been subconsciously projected...
