the field museum

the stroessler men.

and he's off... rumor is there are dino bones inside.

'dino bones, hansy? please? i love them. just ask Our Betsy!'

shua meets Sue.

if you are lucky enough to know hansy, ask him the story behind these deer. fantastic.

a pteranadon and a t rex mural. home away from home.

if you ask shu what he saw in chicago, he'll most likely answer "trains." if you ask him what else he might have seen, he'll most likely say "t rex and 2 big huge elephants."

mac & cheese, oj, and chicago. sigh.

the ginormous, moving, responds-to-what-moves-around-her Sue. we weren't too sure about her at first.

so we moved to a safer locale.

slowly, we moved forward and eventually made it up front. sadly, no pictures of the bravery. my hand was being held hostage :)

stroesslers: out.

a boy and his hansy.

now, i'm sure you can imagine how tired a dude can get

when faced with a dino spectacular such as this.

because, truly,

a dude can get tired.

real, real tired.
