Yes, I worked in Libertyville, Zion, Mundelein, Waukegan, Elgin, and the greater Chicago area. I was on the road for Sears Photo Service. I spend the entire week going into each and every Sears store in the greater Chicago suburbs area. We moved to Fox Lake bought the saloon and lived in Mc Henry mostly because of the reasons you mentioned, small, safe, communiuty minded people. I loved it there and may move there again been considering it. I can live where ever I want to since I am my business, and ework from home. Fill the freezer for winter and hardly need to leave the house. Who knows we may meet yet one day...
