Without Lifting A Finger

Spent last Sunday morning there. Walked around, took a few pics. Finally, they arrived. *                                                         

                                                                                        

@ 5-ish I ducked into Union Station, got my big G card, and waited on the large lacquered wood benches. *                                                   

Left Crystal Lake and returned to Chicago. Goal: Taking the Amtrak to Jackson, MI. The Metra was doubly cheap because it was the weekend, but I had to buy the ticket onboard. Once there I exited, entered Union Station from Madison (see pics below), and tried to purchase Amtrak tickets on the Wolverine (to Jackson) for 3:10. Sold out! So I had to buy tickets for the 6:00 pm train and hang around a bit. Not a problem. Chicago, like any big city, sucks up time. *
