I think some good connections were made all around. Although the turnout was probably less than I hoped (I know there's more than 30-40 people here!), those of us that were there certainly made the most out of it and tried to make the rounds in the time we had. I ate way too much, met a historian, 2 politicians, a lawyer, several younger couples with kids, a chess teacher, an art teacher, big wigs, little wigs, hip folks and folks who probably need hips. Oh yes, and one of the greatest mysteries in the neighborhood was uncovered by my wife... why there was a horse in a certain someone's back yard one day. I just thought she was crazy. | | | read more » |  | Morgan Park Neigborhood Party - Meet Your Neighbors! Posted: Thu, September 13, 2007 | | | Saturday, 10/13/2007 from 1pm til ?

My wife and I had briefly talked about doing this one day... awhile ago. I think we've all heard it said that people are more disconnected and isolated nowadays. I guess I don't have anything personal to compare it to as I grew up in a lot of apartments and moved fairly often. My wife, however, grew up in a neighborhood that knew each other and developed some pretty great annual traditions. Now that I am a "family man" and a homeowner, I am committed to this place. Being as busy as the next guy trying to make ends meet and raise our child, the idea got buried somewhere as a nice idea that might net me some karma someday. | | | read more » |
