Our older son is in Chicago....





Our oldest son, Andy, lives in Chicago with his wife Patricia. They were married last June in an old cottage there in Chicago called the Grove. It had a large two story room with a large front window to give it a church-like appearance. The cottage was built by a couple as a summer home. They were both writers and the cottage is full of neat dining rooms, a balcony, a paneled stair case, and great roof structure of the arts and crafts cottage style. It was eventually given to the state and is now a State Park.
Andy works downtown Chicago as an adviser to people who create websites for medical firms. He is a communication go between for the website people and the computer geeks of the company, helping them to communicate with each other and assisting in the website creations. Patricia is a scientist with a degree in genetics. Her present work is in leading research of nano technology in the human disease area. Nano's can be injected into the blood stream and then removed later for evaluation. There is a lot more going on than that but this is all that I am able to understand. The two of them have a condo in Arlington Heights. Andy has to drive to a train station every morning and rides to the downtown area for forty minutes for more. Andy was always fascinated with the big city life and we knew he would end up there, somewhere, where there are lots of things to do. He enjoys the art galleries and history museums. The two of them traveled to England and France and we have viewed many pictures of art, architecture and historical sites.
