This brought back a lot of memories for me I was born and raised in blue island and have since moved to Tennessee It’s nice to see you enjoyed your visit through here it was also nice to see the house I was raised in. If you ever have time to check out Burbank you should head over that way
Mile after mile of very pretty streetscapes, neatly kept up even around the railroads. In many ways this place is an 'island' of refuge and community. Absolutely remarkable and shocking for me not realizing this place was so special even though I grew up in the Chicagoland northwest suburb of DesPlaines. Reminded me in a very beautiful way of growing up in an area like this. Many thanks and truly may you get the recognition you so greatly deserve!
I recall my dad telling me he rented an apartment in Blue Island in his early 20's when he was working union jobs. This had to be back in the late 60's.
43:36 as someone who has lived in that area for a while, i dont think that corner store is going to be in business again which sucks because i used to head up there with my brothers when we were kids. I heard that the owner has no plans to sell it but for some reason it doesn't look like he has done any work on renovating it either. I could be wrong tho and hopefully he has done some rhings to get the store working again

You’re right this deserves an award. It’s better than my favorite movie finding Nemo.

We're back in the southern suburbs in Cook County, IL to discover another suburb that borders Chicago to the very south.
0:47 Yellowstone won't see it coming
Visit homewood, Lansing and south holland.
