Thursday we got up took our time walking around the area, left our hotel about 1:00pm and headed home. We stopped in the Dells at an outlet store,that was fun. The boys got hats and sun glasses....SCORE

We ate supper at a cracker barrel, then departed for the last leg of our trip. We hit some pretty wicked storms and somehow managed to keep the car on the road.

We had a great time in Chicago, to much to do and not enough time,but we had fun doing what we did.
