Sue's Reappearance (a tiny problem)
Eleyctra:
So Harry is going to have a grand time finding and getting Sue the T.Rex out of the Field Museum in the future book(s). She is in the process of moving into her own suite at the end of the Triassic Era exhibit deeper in the building... https://www.fieldmuseum.org/blog/meet-sues-new-neighbors-hall-dinosaurs
In the month of June 2018, I visited the museum only to be slightly disappointed that instead of Sue, there's now a Titanosaur taking up half the back lobby (which apparently just finished it's move there in May). I finally found her suite, but unfortunately it was still under construction, and I could only see her partial skeleton through a peep hole.
I'm not sure how long the whole switch-over has lasted (and is scheduled to unveil in Spring 2019), but if Harry times his visit for Sue's resurrection, it's hopefully before 2018. And if he visits the Field Museum past 2018, I'm going to enjoy Harry's antics in getting a massive T.Rex through the hallways like a wrecking ball...
I wonder also if Harry will be more capable in the future with necromancy and just resurrect the rest of the dino bones.

Well, he can still take Sue out for a walk. The museum doesn't have to be standing afterwards :D

Things haven't changed since the last time he took her out for a walk... Maybe he only needs to drag her pinky finger outside, put the incantation on it and the rest of her, live, in living color appears?

He's lagging a few years behind at this point, he'll be fine.

But that's the thing: If Butcher keeps to matching our years of rough book publication to Harry's book-to-book timeskips, at what point (if any) will Harry's world and our world line up. (Except for the obvious 4-5 years since the last book to the next one, that'll get merged down to about a year in Harry's world.)
I realize this could be ridiculous. Butcher can handwave the exhibit change away, and the Dresdenverse Field Museum never changes.
I've lost track of the rough number of years that have passed up to Skin Game in Dresdenverse. Has it been 13? 15 years? Harry mentions in Ghost Story after meeting up with the dead cop (Rawlins?) that 'more than 10 years' have passed since he saw him last.
(Its been awhile since I read the books...my facts might be skewed.)
