"L" poetry from David Stone

If you are a Chicagoan, or visited Chicago, you know what it is all about,

David Stone sent this unique boekie, with a long length poem

that he wrote about the "el" or "L" : the Chicago Transit Authority, the CTA,

...and I know all about it, my brother drove the "L", and subway for 35 years :-)

Here are a few super excerpts:

I am wondering if in the 1960's David's and my paths crossed in the Windy City?

Thank you, David! This is special!

That's My Kinda Town :-)
