We went to Dad's cousin George's place in Chicago and parked the car there, then rode the Red Line to Wrigley.

Here's a panorama from our seats
We'd expected it to be hot and were surprised when our seats turned out to be in the shade. The boys were cold, too cold to enjoy the game, so I bought them both sweatshirts

The game was scoreless and boring for the first 7 innings. Then, in the bottom of the 8th, Aramis Ramirez hit a 3-run homer that took the lid off. The place went NUTS after that
The cubs won 3-1.
5:30pm
We return to George's place, which has a terrific view of the lake shore

Then, we leave to have dinner with George and his brother John at Marios.
Day 14 - mile 4598
9:30pm
We arrive at our hotel in Racine, WI. During the day, the "maintenance required" light came on in the van. I'm sure it's just the scheduled reminder since it came almost exactly at 5000 miles since the service we did before we left. But, since we've got alot of driving left to do, I'm reluctant to just ignore it. It turns out that there's a Toyota dealership with Saturday service hours just down the road from where we're staying in Racine, so I'm going to take the van there before they open tomorrow and try to get the service in before we head back to Neenah.
