Spent nearly a week in the Windy City supervising the work in the condo and visiting the kids.
Dinner at an Ethiopian Restaurant
New berber carpet in the bedrooms.
My wedding rings disappeared during the carpet installation. :(
Visit to the International Museum of Surgical Science.
It was pretty interesting. Wish it had more medical oddities.
Below: an old ad for some medicine; He Wants It.
Inside the original Walgreens re-creation.
The 3 story building was once a private home.
It was pretty cool. They had photos of how it looked when the family lived there.

An old time child with shingles on the face
Bust (by Louis Linck) of Maurice Tillet who was diagnosed with acromegaly (bone overgrowth and thickening) at age 20. Feeling a freak in the world, he became a successful professional wrestler in America in 1940, using the ring name The French Angel. Rumor has it that he was the inspiration for Shrek. This bust is actual size.
This appears to be Santa Claus performing a C-section, while uncle Fester reads the directions to him.
Night out at Kingston Mines. Two great Blues Ladies:
Nora Jean Buso and Nellie Tiger Travis
A girl and her cat
