Visiting the Old Neighborhood

As I mentioned some time ago here, I've moved to a new WordPress blog, and started a podcast. I don't plan on visiting the old neighborhood often, but a couple of things have made me a little notalgic, and so I came back.

The first thing was my trip last weekend to the West Ridge (Chicago) neighborhood where I spent most of my life, before moving to the suburbs. Driving along familiar roads brought back some happy memories.

The second thing was some emails from high school classmates. It's been 30 years, and our school is scheduled to close, so classmates have been writing about the "good old days."

It's nice to remember the past, but I try hard to stay in the present.
