Joliet, in general.

Not too many people have heard about Joliet, that's unless if you're a NASCAR fan or are into racing. Well, it's a nice town with a lot of hard-working people. Downtown seems to look very vintage. They have a trainstation and a nice park nearby. In the suburbs, there are homes everywhere left and right. There's not that much basketball courts either. I guess that explains as to why a lot of kids love playing b-ball at their home's driveway. There's a decent mall, too, that I frequent. But I mostly like going to Best Buy adjacent to it - OR go to Officemax, Old Navy, Target and even MC Sports right across the street. And oh yes, there are cornfields wherever you go. That's the midwest you know. People here like to get involved with athletics whether you're an adult and like to go golfing OR if you're a kid, you can go for soccer or softball/baseball. There's a park here near our place that does either or. Plus that same park can hold a LIVE event such as that from performers like Rick Springfield from last May to Brett Michaels (of Poison) just recently in early September....Looking at all of Joliet now, I think it is way better than my old stomping grounds of Norfolk, VA and is equivalent to Virginia Beach for places to check out :-)
