Glenn Photos September 2007

Glenn’s photos are up here. Some of my personal favorites were him looking at the creepy stuffed raccoon at the Little Red School House. My parents took us there when we were kids. Happily it has changed very little in the last 25 years, it is mostly as I remember it. In a world of constant change, a little benign neglect is not a bad thing. Speaking of old things, I went to an antique store at lunch the other day. Rosebud Antiques in Countryside, IL. (On LaGrange Road, just south of 55th street.) It is about the closest thing to Mr. Charrington’s junk shop from 1984 as I have ever seen. You have to turn sideways to get down most of the isles. If, however, you are looking for an old Schwinn, they got ‘em in spades. Stingrays, Typhoons, etc. Coaster brakes as far as the eye can see.

New to me.

This is more or less a placeholder. I think I will just cc: my real blog to this blog to keep the name alive.
