Cedar Lake has a long history that is lowly evolving into an exburb of Chicago. Some in the area still refer to as "Cedartucky" but many locals are trying to erase that image as new condos and resturants on the lake continue to pop up. I don't get down there as often as I would like, but for two days in a row i made the long trip south.
Day One - Press Conference / Ribbon Cutting to open a newly refurbished Intersection
