Thanks Schermyie. I do not remember the Sears tower when we were younger until we went back to Chicago a couple of times to visit our hometown and families and that when I first saw the Sears tower, it was the most tallest building I've ever seen, sooo beautiful especially at night time.

What year was it when you live in Illinois?. Mine was around 1977-81 when my sister and I were 7 or 8 years old.


Sorry for the off-topic here, couldn't help myself. :giggle:

HA HA you didn't go to school at the Prison did you!!! ha ha just kidding.....I know where Joliet is.
 
I was born and raised in Chicago area! I moved out of there in 1985 for good. Thought about moving back there this year but have changed my mind. I can alway visiting there cuz of my family and wonderful friends there.
 
Born in Michigan, my family came to Fort Wayne, Indiana when I was 14. I still live in the area, in a small town (Decatur), just 20 miles south of Fort Wayne.

I'd rather live almost anywhere else! California... or the Pacific northwest would be my pick.

Really? :eek3:

No snow here since between December and January.

The weather here in southern Germany is like Spring... sunshine friendly... I started to hang clothes outside of my yard to dry after wash machine for a first time at 2 weeks ago. February???? :eek3: Normally I start do that between March and April...but February for a first time.
 
I was two years in Germany in the U.S. Army. Cooke Barracks, a flugplatz in Göppingen. We lived way off base out in the sticks in the attic of a wonderful old couple, Herr und Frau Pasch, and their small son Reiner. Reiner Pasch still lives in the same house.

Byrdie, Names on the Face of Montana doesn't show a town named testicle, but there's an infamous testicle festival held annually in Clinton, a tiny town of about 500 just across the Idaho panhandle from Washington state. Balls or not, Hillary was invited there for a campaign stop. Maybe it would have helped.

I remembered driving around Clinton, MT on I-90 and seeing the signs of the bull holding it's testicles at the announcement of the 'Testicle Festival--where you are guaranteed to have a ball!'

I should've stopped in!

Is it possible that the town changes its name for the sake of the festival every year?

Here is the website: Rock Creek Lodge------------Home of the Testicle Festival
