The Lake - Downers Grove

        Is this Prince Pond or is it what is now known as Barth Pond? It sure isn't a lake.

This card left here for Los Angeles, California a century ago. Some how it found it's way back to Downers Grove. Blessing or curse!?

Yellow Milk in Downers Grove

This is one of my favorite eBay finds. It describes a slice of Downers Grove life a century ago. The child didn't want to drink her Downers Grove yellow milk. Yellow milk!? I spoke with an old fellow that once lived on a Kansas farm. He said that when cows ate dandelions their milk would be yellow instead of the white that we are accustomed to.
