;P
lame !!
went to palos hills forest preserve for mountain biking.
best biking near the city; it's not even 45 min out - right @ archer & 95th - and it has 200' or so of elevation.
Laugh at will, those in more fractal geographies. but that's good in the midwest.
Even better, it closed a long loop of knowledge - i had been told that the original bricks from the squash court @ UoC - the first controlled chain reaction - the official start of It All - were randomly buried in some park on 95th st.
well this is that park - and more. In fact this is the site where they rebuilt the reactor after fermi's curious game of squash. As well as a dumping ground for the remains of that & other pre-Argonne experiments.
Fantastic & eerie to have such late summer idyll with historic nuclear waste just below.
next time i'm bringing a geiger counter...
