I'm Back!

Well - it looks like I have taken a bit more time off from blogging than I would have liked! I'm happy to say, starting now - I'll have blog updates for the Libertyville area on a more regular basis!

Remember - if you have a blog idea, or just want to say hi - drop me an e-mail: jimmoran77@gmail.com

Lake County Board Candidate Arrested!
Here is John Roszkowski's Libertyville Review story

It seems local Green Party Lake County Board candidate Dave Serdar had a run-in with an ex-girlfriend at a local funeral home, near his house on Route 176. He had a pretty slim change of beating long-time and well liked incumbent Carol Calabresa before his arrest.... this won't make things easier for him.
