L brought home her friend, R, from school with her Japanese students and the girls played games and had pizza for dinner.
Meanwhile, Andy, E (back today from her U of I visit) and I went downtown to the Field Museum's Night of Ideas. I took this picture of the skyline while they were paying the parking meter. (The museum and Soldier Field wanted $30 to park in their lots! Fortunately, we found a spot on the street.)
The event was open to the public, free with reservations. It was really busy. We sat for a talk by Fermilab scientists before spending the rest of the time just walking around looking at the exhibits we usually don't see ...
... Like this one of the meteorite that hit Benld in 1938, going through a resident's garage and Oldsmobile.
The crowd thins out.
