Every
now and then I'll find something that just cracks me up! This
article from 1971 or 1972 is definitely one of those items.
Remember growing up in Lisle and your curiosity as to why Lisle
was never found on any maps? Not even the Illinois map that
had the "Chicago and suburbs" on the opposite side had Lisle
listed!
Oh sure! Naperville showed up and Downers Grove was always
there but what was the deal with Lisle?
Well just look at the faces of these determined young men of
Lisle!
They weren't taking this sad fact sitting down folks!!
Nope!
No small town "inferiority
complex" for these guys.
They were on a mission!
A mission to get Lisle on a lousy map for
crying' out loud!
Well... After all these years I bet these guys would be happy
to know that I just looked at a fold out map that I bought at
a Mobile
On The
Run and
guess
what? Lisle was actually on it!
Woo Hoo!
Thanks guys! It worked!
