Day 6 - Oak Park, IL and US Cellular Park

We spent a lovely morning and afternoon walking around Oak Park, IL. This beautiful town is noted for its Frank Lloyd Wright homes and Wright's own home and studio which we toured. There are many homes designed by other famous architects during the first 20 or so years of the 20th century, so it is a feast for the eyes. The one pictured here is a famous Wright home which has been cared for so well.

The other house pictured here is the most beautiful Victorian we'd ever seen. The roof line is amazing - such a steep pitch.








We parked our car in Oak Park for the evening, took the L in and transferred to the train to US Cellular Stadium for a White Sox/A's game. This wonderful baseball park is very new with views of the Chicago skyline. Oh, well, the A's lost, but it was a good game. Chicago Sox fans rock! The park rocks! They are still celebrating last year's World Series Championship BIG time!
