      If you have a chance, DO the architectural river boat tour. It is my favorite thing to do in Chicago. I recommend the Chicago Line tour.

    You are so sweet and caring. A kind genuine human being. I know you use to teach preschool and I was a pre-K teacher for over 20 years when I became disabled. I wish we lived close to each other I would love to be your friend, take you to lunch, talk about our grown children… I feel like we could be great friends. You don’t know me but we are kindred spirits

I have done the architecture cruise before and I would recommend it. It give you a lot of history of Chicago while seeing all of the beautiful buildings.❤🚢🎡

Just not in the winter 😳 I worked with a surgeon that was in The Fugitive. Home Alone was filmed in Chicago as was The Blues Brothers. Thank you two for sharing Chicago. I'm homesick now. 😊 I lived in Valparaiso, Indiana and spent a lot of time in Chicago. 3D printing is fascinating.

Well I'm waiting on a prescription delivery so maybe Shoppers drug Mart has some then I can ask them to grab one for me it will be a very expensive yogourt I bet though I add a bit of Stevia and cinnamon and it's delicious

    Talking about RVs, my hubby wanted one and researched for a long time before we purchased our 45’. You do not need a special license to drive this huge machine! It became a challenge because he didn’t admit to me that it stressed him out to drive it!! Ugh! We kept it for a few years before selling it and losing money! I would have preferred spending that amount on a beachside bungalow, such is life with my hubby.

    As you are traveling home. The second exit into Indiana is Indianapolis Blvd. there used to be the Great American Antique Mall. Also, if it during a weekday, you can continue down the Blvd. to the Ridge Road. There is a Crossroads of America monument of the flags. Then turn left there and then go into downtown Highland. There are a couple of thrift stores you could hit.

    Chicago is a great city, just 90 miles from my hometown Milwaukee ("which is Algonquin for the good land" 😆)! I'd snag my ma's '66 Mustang, load up my friends and drive down to see late 60's early 70's big name groups, Loved the art museum best ('Sunday in the Park' is my favorite) I'd love to go back to see The Bean in person but probably never will. Have fun! Spring is wonderful there! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
