Love Thrifting? Make a Stop to Shop in Lindenhurst



Love Thrifting?  Make a Stop in Lindenhurst
 

What fun, two #resale shops in one stop.  Just off Grand Avenue in the Linden Plaza are two exciting resale shops.  #HiddenTreasures Resale sells clothing, household items and jewelry to benefit the #Allendale Association.  Founded in 1897, Allendale provides services to trouble youth and their families throughout Northern Illinois.  Before you head to the next shop you need to stop at #TheTwistedCow for an ice cream treat or a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich.  Then walk next door to AHA! (Alliance for Humane Action) Resale Shop.  Here you will find home decor, books and pet related items.  All proceeds from AHA! go to local animal welfare programs.  Hidden Treasures and AHA! accept donations, please see their websites for more information.  #ShopLocal

Lake Villa Memories - Tegan's Resort on Deep Lake

Lake Villa Memories - Tegan's Resort on Deep Lake

Although my parents lived in Chicago during their young adult years, I was surprised to learn that they both had wonderful memories of the #LakeVilla area.  My Dad would travel out on the weekends with his boyfriends to spend the day in the sun on #CedarLake.  And my Mom worked in her teens as a summer housemaid at the #Tegan's Resort on #DeepLake.  She told me on the weekends the owner would take all the workers to the Antioch theater for a movie.   Photo courtesy of  Chain O'Lakes Postcard History Series.
