    When did Bolingbrook get a hospital? Wow! I just Googled it and looked at a map. Edward and Hinsdale hospitals have a presence there too. The last time I was down that way, McDonald's, Pizza Hut, and the Fountaindale libraries were the highlight of that suburb and Romeoville. All those empty fields must be getting built up.

    I hope the OP is learning good grammar and punctuation to do his flyer, and I hope he returns to ask for more help.

    I hope they return too or there won't be any pages left... :)

    Bolingbrook is now the new sub-Naperville hon. Things have changed a lot... a lot! Most of the homes on the west side average $350,000 to about $450,000. Some are well over $2M.
    Tons of new stores and a thriving hugh mall at Boughton Road and rt 355: Sax, Macys, Bass Pro Shop and about 12 or 15 restaurants. It is really beautiful (period). An outdoor 'community type' mall like a small town.

    We are located just east of rt 59 right at Bolingbrook's western border.

    When I hung out there back at the end of the '80s (my coauthor lived on Lily Cache), most of the village was made up of townhomes with a mix of cultural groups and lots of crime. (Should I mention the name Drew Peterson?) It was a step-up community with residents ready to move up into Naperville or Lisle. It sounds like the dream suburb now. A few former coworkers built their first homes down there -- a young family's dream location.

    It sounds like you are in a fantastic location, close to lots of shopping (Fox Valley malls too) and expressways!

    Yes we are happy here with good neighbors and Plainfiled schools. Actually the northwestern part of Bolingbrook has Naperville schools. The present problem is that the values, like everywhere, have dropped. I am down about $100,00.00 with all the additions; 54 x 18 brick patio, library upstairs, etc. Hopefully things will turn around but I don't think that it will be soon. Looks like I won't be able to retire WG. Ha I told my wife to just put a cell phone in my coffin and I'll still do business. Although I may scare the h3ll of my clients. :)

    Yes both malls are about 5 miles from me and the Louis Joliet Mall also about 15 miles away. Although we don't shop in Joliet.

    Well, even with the negative stuff going on, it doesn't mean that we can't try to give good advice and hope for a postitive and productive future! Experience does have it's merits!

    Correct?

    Correct?
    Stringer and I were doing our best to be shining examples to the OP and to anyone reading this thread. We wrote with good grammar, spelled words correctly, and used correct punctuation. I did my best to keep him in line (although I missed correcting him on a few)! Stringer and I are role models for anyone wanting to put together a great flyer for his business!

    P.S. "Experience does have it's merits" -- "it's" should be "its" with no apostrophe -- it's a possessive pronoun, not "it is."

    I did that deliberately in hopes you would, with your sharp little eyes, notice it. That way, if you watch for MY mistakes, you will be more careful with your own writing.

    Now, let's work on Clough's writing. :D
