La Porte County, Indiana Road Sign- a Nod to an Ardent Blog Reader

A guest blog  by Mark and Erika and a special nod to a dear family friend!

My son Mark has been wanting to photograph this sign for years.

When you’re driving on the turnpike, it’s fairly impossible.  This weekend as they headed to a Chicago wedding, with Erika driving and an iPhone camera, he was able to capture this special road sign for his good friend’s father who bears the same name.

Although Mr. Wozniak doesn’t write comments on the blog itself, I receive the loveliest of emails in response to many of the daily photos as they trigger a memory or story from his growing up.

 

and since we are talking Polish heritage (see info on the Jacob Wozniak from Indiana who was a wagon painter here)

Erika sent a photo of the wedding dinner from the Polish wedding they attended in Chicago this weekend while I watched the grandchildren.  They said is was delicious and served Family Style.

    The Church is beautiful. An “old” fashion church. The food looks delicious!!

  3. Now that’s a coincidence! And a Polish wedding here in Chicago? How rare!
    We have the largest Polish population in the world outside of Warsaw. I’ve no idea how many Jacob Wozniaks live in Indiana.
