Good morning! Today we’re taking a look at a trip my grandfather took to Chicago in the late 1930s. Here’s a picture of him standing outside the Museum of Science and Industry, with Chicago in the background. According to my aunt my grandfather really enjoyed this museum and returned with the whole family in the 1960s.

Here’s another picture I think is pretty cool. My grandfather must have taken this while riding the “L.”
