Other places I visited on vacation:
Robie House
Stunning. Completely sated my Frank Lloyd Wright appetite. I didn’t need to see Oak Park or anything else.
I don’t know why the foot of the sofa leg has a CURVE in it. So out of place.
Museum of Surgery
Loved this place (except for the spot where you emerge into the hallway and see an iron lung and feel sorry for your Mom).
A souvenier:
Palmer House (second runner-up hotel)
I did go to the lobby of the Palmer House – and I am very glad I didn’t stay there. There were no robots. Also there was the worst brownie I have ever eaten.
Supposedly the brownie was invented there. The recipe tasted old, like they used bakers’ ammonia as the raising agent.
And that’s a wrap from Chicago. Would recommend, and I learned a lot about hoofing it as an older lady.
