On August the 5th thru the 7th we were in Chicago IL. On our way down from Milwaukee we stopped at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center in Great Lakes IL. We had this crazy idea that maybe we would see Thomas marching around. Of course we didn’t but we did find out they had a campground we could come back to for his graduation in September. While in Chicago we went and saw the White Sox play the Angels on the 6th. On the 7th, we rode the train in to town to the Sears Tower (it is now called Willis Tower) and went up 103 floors to the observation deck. We even went onto the four foot clear ledge that overlooks the tower – all the way to the ground. Kevin wouldn’t do it, didn’t even get close. The kid’s favorite thing about Chicago was at the campground we stayed at in Peotone IL. The campground hosts, Don and Dianne were really great. They let the kids drive their golf cart all over the park each day. One night they even brought out a small dune buggy and let us all drive it around the park. It was our favorite campground so far.
