The winding way to get to the elevator was full of interesting facts
The tower is 262 Michael Jordan's...too funny
The elevator ride up....
The views were amazing....the river
Lake Michigan...big marina
Interesting buildings being pointed out on this map
Harv, Peg, Denny, Nathie on the glass push out....was so odd standing out there...
Looking straight down from the glass room...
Really enjoyed our visit to the tower...
Next was lunch at a famous Italian restaurant...Berghoff's
First opened in 1898...
After an amazing lunch, Harv drove us around for a downtown city tour..

Looked like a great place to hang....
Famous Chicago Pizza...
THE place to buy popcorn...Garrett.....the famous cheese/caramel mix
It was beginning to rain and time to head home...it was about an hour ride out to the country so we headed home...it was a great ride and very peaceful just a short distance out of the city. It was great to see the city...but we really enjoyed being out where it was quiet. We stopped and had a wonderful BBQ sandwich and headed home. It was a bit cooler, so we slept with our window open...but closed it early in the morning ...burr....but was a sunny day.
After a wonderful breakfast, Harv took us to see his shop/business....so fascinating..
very nice articles about his business
A lot of publications his product is featured in..
THE man's desk....where the buck stops...
Explaining his products...
A bean pole
Some of the equipment reminded me of machinery that was in my Dad's shop
Big coils of wire that turn into vegetable "pens" for growing beans and tomatoes and other things
Just fascinating..
Harv's business....HE Associates, Inc.
We headed home to a wonderful lunch Peg had made and then they taught us how to play bridge...we had a blast. Had another great nites sleep.
After a wonderful breakfast we headed back to the airport....but took a few pictures first..
Thanks for having us...we had a wonderful visit.
See you at the farm!!!
