The Lakeside Antique Sale

is usually held the first day (Saturday) of the final week. There won't be any programming after tonight, and even the coffee shop will be closed Monday-Wednesday next week. Sigh. Here's some more photos of the antique sale, which began as a flea market 45 years ago.

This isn't for sale, but is across the street from the sale, and I think it is pretty.

Here I am looking in a mirror.

The Greatest Generation--sailors finishing their training in 1942 at the Great Lakes Naval Center in Chicago. How many didn't come home?

These young entrepreneurs set up shop across the street selling their homemade wares.
