This post in my Brooklin in Illinois series features the 1951 Nash-Healey LeMans roadster in Mint Green (BRK 230). July is national Ice Cream Month in the US, and I chose a background photo showing an ice cream store in Richmond, near the Wisconsin border. As the sign on the building states, "Life is Better with Ice Cream".

Ed your photos evoke a feeling of warmth and welcoming and while they are images of the Chicago area, they could be anywhere. I love your posts along with those of your fellow Chicago native Mike DeTorrice.
