BTW, this was probably the last picture of me with the "Gabby Hayes" beard...  My sisters were outraged and almost forced to get rid of it... Coerced you might say...

 I did look like a bum and I didn't give a shit but, I was getting strange looks.  

Back to clean shaven every 3 to 5 days..

South Suburban Airport - Third Airport For Chicago




Map above from 2013, map below February 2016




Planning and land purchase continues for the Third Airport for Chicago.  The map above shows the progress of land acquisition. 

Planning for the airport has been underway for over forty years.  My wife and I worked on this issue for many years. 

It is of course very controversial.   Many of the people who live in or near the site are very opposed. Other people see the airport as the economic engine for the south side of Chicago.

The area is at the south end of the Chicago developed metro area, bounded by Crete, University Park, Monee, Peotone, and Beecher. I-57 is on the west side, I-294/Rt 1 on the east side, and the new I-355 Tollway would be on the north side.
A considerable amount of land has been acquired for the initial airport. It probably will not be developed until the economic recovery creates additional demand for air traffic. O'Hare and Midway are of course very busy and congested and Chicago is the major Hub for the United States.



I prepared the Land Use Plan Map and local transportation improvement plan above. The Plan is a mosaic of the plans of Will and Kankakee County and the Villages of Crete, Monee, University Park, Peotone, Beecher, Manteno, and Grant Park. 

The web sites below tell more about the airport.

Google Apps


Google Apps and Drive are great free applications provided by Google. You can store information in the cloud, share files It allows, and prepare, edit, and publish documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.

It is a bit confusing at first, but over time I have really grown to like it. Go ahead and try it.

First thing to do is get a gmail address. Go to gmail.com and create your account. You can use any set of numbers and letters that you want.  I just use my name - if I forget that I won't need Google Drive any longer. craighullinger@gmail.com

You can use any browser. I really like Google Chrome. Try it, you will like it. google.com/chrome

After you have created your gmail account, log in and go to the 9 little black boxes in the upper right hand corner.

 Click on that and you will find a box like 
the one to the right.  These are applications that Google provides for free.  And there are more but these will do for now.  

 The Calendar App is easy.  Just click on it and go to work.  If you use gmail on your phone you can also get the app and see the same calendar on your phone.  And your can sync your calendar with your spouses or coworkers calendar.

 The Drive App is very handy.  Google gives you 15 gigabytes of free storage.  That may last you for life. You can buy more than that for a modest sum.

 On the Drive you can store documents, spread sheets, files of any sort, and photos. This is of course handy - keep copies on your PC and in the cloud and have 100% backup. And of course you can keep your handy dandy back up hard drive and have 200% backup.

 You can also download a copy of Google Drive on to your PC, your pad, and your phone.  All the copies should stay in sync - update or add a  document from device and it will update on the cloud and you can access it from your other device. Or from any PC in the world if you log into your gmail account.

 Incidentally, I used to use a very simple password for my gmail account - I figured if I got hacked it did not matter.  But now I have a lot of info on my drive, so I have memorized a more complex password.  You can easily remember it by using your old simple password and add a number of !! or @@ or numbers to it.
Googe Photos is also very nice. If you use a cell phone with your gmail address, you can set it up to automatically upload to the cloud every photo that you take.  Then you can distribute the photo to Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, etc etc.


You can also get link to share albums of photos- click to see some photos I took last week.

Blogger is one of my favorite Apps. A blog is probably where you are reading this. A Blog is a website - free from google. I 


You can have up to 100 blogs per gmail address.  You can just tell people about your family, your interests, or you can write the Great America Novel.

That is enough for now.  Go and surge forth.
