Coffee shops

This is the only local coffee shop within 10 minutes. The rest are further downtown (15+ minutes). They have a few very delicious scones and muffins! I’ve seen some salads in a cooler display but haven’t tried them.

We’ve lived near the major zoos in Chicago, and we love the zoo here. It’s the perfect size to see everything in one trip and not feel like you’re there all day long.
