It's Thursday, and that means that Cyndie and the kids are out doing a "tourist thing" today. They just left for the Navy Pier and the Children's Museum there. They'll also likely check out the sights and maybe do a ride or two (there's a ferris wheel and carousel).
Yesterday was low key. After the Japanese grocery store, they rode the El and got lunch at a noodle place. We had an early dinner and then walked to a new park. It was pretty hot still when we went about 5:30 p. By the time we got there we were ready for some ice cream at a little stand in the park ... only to find that there was no cash in my wallet! Fortunately the playground was in the shade. As we walked home, a heavy cloud cover came in and some nice cool wind which really helped to cool us off. We were amused to see an adult kickball league warming up at the other end of the park as we walked home! Hilarious!
So that's the story as it unfolded yesterday. I'm working for the morning and early afternoon, and then I'll probably join in on a trip to a park with water fountains that the kids can play in.
