Chicago winters can be BRUTAL, but winter is also REALLY bad in many other states as well! The major difference, in Chicago, is when the wind whips off lake Michigan in the dead of winter and you wind up with a wind chill factor in the minus teens!

Our fourth winter in Chicago was SO bad, that no matter what you wore/how bundled up your were, that freezing wind could still be felt in your bones!

The Field Museum is quite nice; however, the museums in Manhattan ( NYC ) are superior and the Museums in London are as well! I LOVE museums ( have done since I was a tiny child ), so I'm extremely familiar with ALL of the museums in these three cities.

Well the Field has the Tsavo lions ( ie The Ghost and the Darkness)……and Sue, the TRex

That’s what I wanted to see.
