Default Chicago Natives

Hey, all you native Chicagoans take a look at the "Chicago Natives" Social Group. Feel free to join, and share your memories with the group. Add pictures of Chicago. Come on down memory lane.

Jim 007:

I went to the Social Groups and Chicago Natives and clicked join - waiting for acceptance of my request to join.

Didn't realize this was a restricted members group and was membership subject to approval. (Don't let Nonie in!)

Default Didn't Realize it was restricted

Sorry, I didn't realize I set the group up as a restricted group, didn't mean to.
Of course, all Chicagoans both north and south-siders. Cubs or Sox fans.
Just bear with me to unlocking the door for you all. And yes Nonie can come in too.

Default Chicago Natives Now a Public Group

I just figured out how to make the group public, so you will not need permision or an invite to join the group. Feel free to join us for a trip back to at least what I remember growing up in Chicago.

Cool How Chicago are you?

You know what Jay's Potato chips are?
You drank an Old Style or a flagstaff?
You been to Rainbow beach?
Had a burger at Billy Goats?
Remember what your bus route was #30
My alderman was? (Vrdolyak)
zip code was 60617 as a kid
Been to Western Ave on St Pat's day
Know's what a vienna beef hot diog is?

105th and yates, that's about as south as you
go, neighborhood was called South Deering.
What a great city and we still enjoy it today

Respectfully,
