New poll

New poll listed. Only one vote allowed. Let's let Ginger know what is most important to us, the people who actually live in 60655. Are we close to election year?

The winner is!

Cassell (65 votes) won the poll with St. Christina second (45 votes). As for the high schools, Marist won with 24 votes and Brother Rice and McAuley tied for second with 23...very close.

Best Kept Secrets of 60655

Got this as a comment:

Hey 60655, How about an open post where locals share what they consider the"Best Kept Secrets" in 60655. Restaurants, businesses, and any other selling point. I just got married and my wife is new to Mt. Greenwood. Help me show her why this is the BEST area of the city for raising a family.

Stay Warm!

Thankfully nothing is going on in 60655 (that I know of).

Stay warm as it will be getting FRIGID! Keep an eye on our home bound neighbors. Keep taps dripping to keep your pipes from freezing. Make sure you don't leave the animals out too long. It's been a long time since we have seen temperatures this low. Now, if I can get my teenager to wear more than a hoodie, I will be in good shape.

What a great neighborhood.

Thank you! In one month this blog has had over 4,000 hits! It just shows what a close knit neighborhood this is! I never thought it would take off like this. I am proud to call myself a 60655er. I started this blog and sent the link to 10 people and it has spread from there. There is no reason that when united we cannot get things done in this neighborhood!
