Chicago and Environs (including Wisconsin) |
With J.J. Kwashnak and Russ Minton |
February 2002 |
NOT loves the city. Despite being a small duck, he loves the sheer size and energy of a city like Chicago. And here it is all laid out for him.
NOT is looking to tap into that energy. But where to go? Aha! He decides to check out the Fermilab near the city, to check out his nuclear physics.
They wouldn't let NOT into the reactor, he was disappointed to find out. Suddenly a light shone in his eyes! "Aha! There is energy!"
But after furious flapping, he found it was only the Grosse Point Lighthouse on the Northwestern campus.
All sorts of energy is being expended on the renovations of Soldier's Field, forcing the Bears to play elsewhere for the year. NOT checks up on the work, but finds little in the way of energy.
The power of nature was demonstrated to him in Wisconsin where he learned about glaciers and Drumlins.
Finally sullen about going home without finding the power he sought, NOT found his flight (and J.J. and Russ' flight) cancelled from Milwaukee to Chicago, so he found himself being sent to O'Hare in a limo.
And there, finally, NOT found a real source of power. The power that comes from riding in style.
Now that's the way to travel!
