Nostalgia & History > An April of 86 afternoon at Blue Island ILDate: 01/25/06 23:13 An April of 86 afternoon at Blue Island IL Author: dt8089 In Chicagoland when April rolls around we usually get our first 70 plus degree days and with cabin fever everyone goes outdoors. Such as the case for me, I went to Blue Island. First up was the BRC transfer returning from the B&OCT. Dan
