Yesterday morning we decided to drive to Madison. I wanted to take my camera to a repair shop there, and then Cindy suggested we visit libraries to take photos for her library project. When I was looking up the location of the camera shop, I decided to read the Yelp reviews, and someone said they don't do the repairs, they just send the cameras out to the manufacturers. That won't work for me because mine is too old, so that plan was scrapped, but we still went to the libraries.
We visited eight out of ten in the city, including in nearby Monona where Cindy lived as a child. We missed a couple that we could have gotten if we'd started earlier in the day, but it's not like we won't be going back through the area.
The weather was amazing - sunny, and temps in the upper 70's. I wish we'd been able to spend more time out in it. I wanted to walk around downtown with my camera after the libraries closed at 5:00, but it turned out Cindy's feet were hurting. The rest of the week will be in the 30s and 40s.
I still need to figure out how to get the camera fixed. There are a lot of repair shops in Chicago, so I need to figure out where and when. I've got less than four weeks before we go on vacation.
