After
this whirlwind of a weekend my brief visit to Chicago had come to an end. I was
sad, as I always am, to leave this beautiful city and all it has to offer. Just
as I promised, I taught my brother all there was to love about and in Chicago
and his love now also knows no bounds. Chicago will do that to you. Even if you
don’t know what you are in for you will still end up having the time of your
life. If you don’t, you are doing it wrong!!
These are
the items that still remain on my to do list:
·
Original
Playboy Mansion;
·
Home
Alone House;
·
Jane
Addams Hull House Museum;
·
Robie
House by Frank Lloyd Wright;
·
Hemingway
Museum/ The Ernest Hemingway Birth Place;
·
Wrigley
Field;
·
Gino’s
East;
·
RPM
Steak; and
·
Eli’s
Cheesecake.
Most
recently I read up about Underwater Safaris a company in Chicago that teaches
snorkeling and scuba diving for those who want to dive into Lake Michigan. For
those willing to dive in, there is a shipwreck that is quite popular with local
divers. I have yet to hit the beaches in Chicago but a snorkeling adventure
would be an ideal afternoon for me sometime in the future.
Finally I
will need to spend a proper full day at The Field Museum so that I can see past
Sue and her fellow prehistoric creatures.
Don’t let
this seeming small list fool you. There are things that I haven’t discovered
yet that will be added and treasures I long to relive again.
I now
walk around with pride displaying my love for Chicago on my finger! This unique
piece of art was created by Shekhtwoman, which you can find on the last link
below. These rings and other jewelry are a great way to keep the places you
love close to your heart.
In the
meantime I will continue to build onto my next trip’s itinerary.
