Illinois is full of hidden gems! Discovered another in Schaumburg - the Schweikher-Langsdorf home and studio. Fascinating. http://maureenblevins.blogspot.com/

Positively Hemingway! Did you know this literary icon was born and raised in Oak Park, IL? Come visit the home and museum - just a short walk up the block!

This week we head for the Morton Arboretum in Lisle for the Glass Pumpkin Patch - what a delight! http://maureenblevins.blogspot.com/

This week's Fields of Dreams update at The World on Wheels concerns the home of the Cubs. Not a whole lot new to report here except ticket prices have pretty much skyrocketed from our last update. Wrigley Field, Chicago

It's Wednesday of our Salute to Chicago week at The World on Wheels so that means it must be time to update our Chicago transit report. Yep: http://tinyurl.com/9z9u793

Our focus on The World on Wheels this week is the Second City. It's a classic trip to Chicago: http://tinyurl.com/ygs5r2o

Thanks, Amanda! Great suggestions. I've been a few times but not all that recently, so just wanted some ideas to bring me up to date.

I work in the tourism industry here in Chicago and would be happy to give you tips if you want to shoot me an email to abooth@hiusa.org. My top recommendations would be: Millennium Park (for a free concert or just to hang out and take fun pictures by the Bean), Willis Tower (or as we will forever call it, Sears Tower) Skydeck or Hancock Observatory, Bobby's Bike Hike bike tour, architectural or historical boat tour (I like Chicago Line personally), catch a Cubs game, Lincoln Park Zoo (one of the last remaining free zoos in the country), visit any of the numerous neighborhoods each with their own vibe, ComedySportz show, etc. Too many things to choose from! If you want a museum, check out Museum of Science and Industry, Shedd Aquarium or Art Institute. Have FUN!!!
