    Living with all these animals, it can be hard to get away from the farm.  But we managed to sneak away for a couple of days and go to Chicago.  It was an exhausting trip, but well worth it! 

    We rode the 9:00 train in from Gary to Chicago, then rode the subway to Wrigley field for a day game.  It was a good game, very very cold. Great seats too!  Thank God, I brought blankets and Rod remembered the hats and gloves!  We all needed them!  We also had tickets to the White Sox 7:00 game, and had to leave by 5 to get down there.  Of course, the Cubs game went into extra innings!  It was the first game Rod ever had to leave early!  We left in the 13th inning.  (Game went to 14)  But we made it down to the White Sox game in time! 

    Wrigley Field is filled with history.  It's a great ball park.  But the White Sox US Cellular Field is really really nice!  (reminds us of the Tigers Comerica Park)  We got to sit 7 rows above the Sox Dugout!  It was a great game!  Funny thing is, it was warmer at the night game!!

    After a long day of baseball, we had to wait to catch the 11:18 train to Gary.  It was a long train ride, we were all tired and ready for bed!  I think I can speak for all of us, we had a great day!   Even managed to stop at the Indiana Dunes on the way home!  Thanks everyone, I had a great time!
