I never get to see the ghost train because it only happens twice per day but I found myself here 2 minutes before it happens. I figured I would hang out and watch it. #POTD #Shorewood
@hunterwalk We went through that in #Milwaukee a few years ago when Harry W. Schwartz went out of business. They tried to turn the #Shorewood location into a coop with neighborhood funding. It's an uphill battle.
I got out early enough to go to the farmers market in Estabrook Park, today. #Shorewood #POTD
I'm going to need to see what this is. This is where the taco place once was in #Shorewood.
