It’s gonna be May! I hope this month’s calendar helps put a spring in your step.
It features a favorite from my neighborhood. The Wicker Park cannon was used for training during WWI. It was added to this neighborhood yard when the property was used as an American Legion Hall. It never fails to stop people walking by in their tracks!
I hope your May is a blast. 😉
