> Not sure how easy this is for only two people w/o education credentials, but how about visiting [Fermilab](http://www.fnal.gov/pub/visiting/tours/index.html)? It’s only about 50 miles away from you guys. I certainly annoyed my girlfriend to no end on our flight into Chicago when I excitedly pointed out the Tevatron ring to her…

Anyone can visit Fermilab (they have a visitor center, etc). They’re shutting down the Tevatron ring in September so this’ll be your last chance to see the place while it’s still what it was famous for.
