In 1996 and 1997 I was treated for head & neck cancer at University of Chicago Hospitals in Hyde
Park. I go back for regular checkups. I take the South Shore to 57th Street and walk to the clinic,
and after my appointments I catch a Metra Electric to Randolph Street and go sightseeing until time
for my train back to Indiana. October 5, 2004, was a perfectly clear, sunny autumn day, and I
spent most of my time in the vicinity of Millennium Park.
