The Trip

More Orchids


Conservatory, Orchid Room


















We started the Chicago trip with a walk thru the Conservatory.  Perfect start after a long trafficky car ride.
Chicago's like a huge art museum.  Everywhere you look there's something amazing to see.  Other highlights:


  1. Transformer 3's filming so we got to take some pix of the phenomenal sets.
  2. Dinner at Bin 36.
  3. Art Institute:  Cartier-Bresson exhibit etc.
  4. The Bean
  5. Orchestra Rehearsal in Gehry's Pritzker Pavilion
  6. #1 Son and Husbandman heard Pharez Whitted at Jazz Showcase
  7. Shopping on the Mile
  8. Walking and talking for hours and hours

D, Q did not get the CD. He decided to get it from the library first. That's what he usually does.

The trip was a blast. Super short, but fantastic nonetheless.

Now I'm going to try to do Day 1 of Week 9 of the couch to 5K. It's so hot this morning. Why???
