Chicago Visit

Dad, Little Mom amd Scott at The Bean. The Bean is covered by Stainless steel plates over a fortified steel frame. Under these plates, it is actually hollow on the inside. It was built in place because it was too heavy, bulky and dangerous to transport into Downtown Chicago. Also, after it was built, it had to be polished and have its seams removed, giving the appearance of being one large shiney object, instead of being the sum of many shiny stainless steel plates.
