#3 Art Institute of Chicago

Iconic landmark in Chicago.  Free for Illinois residents in Jan, Feb and Mar.  Perfect for a cold, snowy, wintry day.  I spent 6 hours and walked 4 miles INSIDE the museum.  I hit all the favorites (Hopper's Nighthawks, Wood's American Gothic, Seurat's Sunday Afternoon) and even caught a talk in the modern wing.  Informative and thought provoking.  I always like looking at the Greek and Roman coins and pottery and sculpture.  Still don't get Pollack though.  Seriously, even he admits, "I am not aware of what I am doing."

Lots to explore here.
