Howard and I left early (with boys) and went into downtown Chicago to the Art Institute.
It was an experience to behold. A very exciting museum...many artists who we love and exciting rooms: African, Chinese, Inca, Impressionist, Modern. Even the junior art museum there was a touch and experiment joy for all of us.
Drove to Randolph Square to see Picasso’s gift to Chicago. Smaller and less impressive than we expected.
Thunder showers off and on. Went next to Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. Went through the only actual-size model of a coal mine. Road in coal miner’s train. Really an experience. Very enlightening.
Then through actual captured German WW2 sub.
So much information and displays...couldn’t see all. Relaxed evening with Bill and Shirley and to bed early.
