Chicago

Thursday Austin and I left for a quick trip to the University of Chicago to take a look at the University and meet the cross country coach, who wants Austin to run for them.

The first night he met up with the team for their team dinner and then he met me back at the hotel.

The next day we took a tour of the campus. It was gorgeous with lots of old cool buildings. It was a little chilly but not too bad. After the tour and meeting with the coach we took an Uber into downtown.

First stop the Bean.

After that we went to get some traditional Chicago Pizza. And talk about his choices for school and what where his head was at. He also has been accepted at Ohio State in the honors program and has been offered a scholarship.

Next we hit the Chicago museum of Art. We wandered around there for a couple hours and then we went to the Skywatch and watched the sun go down.

It was very cool to be up so high and see the entire city. We were exhausted after walking all over the city and crashed back at our hotel and went to bed early. Austin said it was super helpful to visit. We will see what he decides….
