Anyone near Dwight Ill?

Going to tag along with hubby on a trip near Dwight. Was wondering what there was to see. We will have a rental car for the week. Was hoping to drive to Chicago for some site seeing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. He will be in classes and I will be free to explore.

Thanks for the info. I did go on the Dwight city page. I have never been to Chicago so It will be fun. I like to hear form locals what things to see and what are just tourist traps. Any help is greatly appreciated. We will be spending the last two nights in Chicago if we can afford it.
