Oh, crap!
Not again.

At least it wasn’t a bid or payment or something important.

Utah seems pretty joyless in general to me.

Visit during Pioneer Days and see the fireworks. The sky over the whole valley from Salt Lake City to Provo looks like London during the Blitz.

That was the Harlem & Cermak Plaza (Harlem & 22nd St.) in Berwyn.

My now ex-wife and I were on a cruise when we picked up a newspaper that had an article about it going up the weekend we left for our vacation. It was also featured in one of the Waynes World movies, though they said in the movie it was in Aurora near Stan Mikita Donuts (which never existed, BTW.)
