To back into this place we had to get turned around by going down a dead-end (by the baseball field) then backing through the intersection (with Cindy’s help!) so I wouldn’t have to blind side in. I actually had to backed in only blocking traffic for a few seconds. Then after leaving, we missed a turn because it was too tight to make with all the traffic and with no where to turn around, and staying away from No Truck signs and coming up on one low bridge, really narrow streets and construction and detours, I was a nervous wreck and was really glad to see I-95 signs.

Now we are headed for the small streets and low bridges of downtown Chicago. We are delivering new furniture to a hotel on Monday morning. Then on Monday afternoon we go back to the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry and pick up the Marval Comics exhibit that we dropped off last week and take it to a Boston Museum.

Saturday after some computer problems we find a new power cord for the laptop at a Radio Shack get a hotel room near a theater and see the movie United 93. It’s about the flight that crashed in Pennsylvania on 9/11. It’s a very intense movie, more like a documentary, not much story or background, just what happened that day. It was done with every single family member of the flight’s help and permission. A lot of the traffic control and military goings which showed a lot of confusion and frustration. Several of the traffic controllers and military played themselves, which I thought was really cool. I’m not sure how it could have been more authentic. Then we get back to the hotel and flip on the movie Pearl Harbor now on TV. Then A&E is having the TV version of flight 93 (after seeing the movie made the TV version look like cheap acting). Very depressing night for TV, I needed to find some make believe instead of seeing some of Americ’a’s worst moments.

Everyone should see it, not only to be reminded of what happened that day, but to see a ordinary people become heros that deal with extraordinary events.
