Photos from Jackson Park Tour – August 21 2010
August 26th, 2010 by ShortyI should be ashamed to admit that I didn’t know much about the South Side even though I was born and raised here prior to becoming Your South side Resource. In addition to reading books to gain knowledge, I am seeking out tours and other events to educate myself .
I joined the Windy City Tours group on a Jackson Park on Saturday August21, 2010. Headed by Joe Steffan, we learned about The World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, Osaka Garden and a host of other interesting facts. Since much of the information escapes me right now, here are a few photos to fill in the blanks.
Enjoy!
