Four to Field

Nearly a year to the day that Dad and Levynn visited The Field Museum, all four of us finally made it there together today. Dad had spied a pass at the downtown library (which we now frequent) and grabbed it, not knowing whether we'd have a chance to use it. But we did!

We walked to Michigan Ave. and hopped on a bus (one bus - oh how nice it is to live here!) that delivered us across the street from the museum's front door.

(That's not a spaceship inside that stadium in the background. That's Soldier Field and its hideous "upgrade" from a few years back.)


Can you tell Chicago's excited about the NBA and NHL playoffs?


After the obligatory viewing of Sue, we headed downstairs to the Crown Family Playlab, which closed for the day before Dad and Levynn could get there last time.
Levynn got dressed up as a redbird (above) and a skunk (below, gassing us through a log).

Lincoln and Levynn both liked the lifesize adobe model the best.
