someone just told me that cook county forest preserves are off limits? I haven't been bothered once yet. Whatever you do, don't play soccer in the park, you;ll get a tix

I'm serious about the playing soccer in the park, i'm sure you heard. HH

Forget the parks but there ok to hunt.
Find a few nice older houses and ring the doorbell and ask..
You will have much better chance of finding good stuff..
Send me a pm when your in the area and I just might have an older house lined up...
I'm going to Iowa in the middle of May, for a couple days, and I will be doing some doorbell ringing out there myself. ( 1850's to 1920's houses)
I have permission to do an 1876 School House already lined up out there.. But I still want to do the older houses.
Try that route..

Parks are good, old houses are the best.
