I grew up in Hinsdale in the 80s/90s in a house built in 1894. My parents bought it from the granddaughter of the man who built it. I miss Hinsdale a lot.
Wow, that sounds like an incredible connection to Hinsdale and a beautiful piece of its history! Living in a house with such a rich heritage must have been a truly unique experience. It's clear that Hinsdale left a lasting impression on you, and I can understand why you miss it. Thank you for sharing your experience!
So much nostalgia in this town. The Fullers are my sister's godparents. That tavern used to be Soukup's Hardware and there was a gas station on the corner. Other places I miss seeing are Foster's toy store, the Whistle Stop video rental place (in the old train station), and the Hinsdale News Agency, where I used to get my comics as a kid. Page's diner was a special treat sometimes where we'd go to get pancakes before school if we got up early enough. The farmer's market used to be held in the alleyway behind Soukup's hardware. King Kaiser is where we would go to get our sports uniforms for school and for the golf club swim team. I've also still got my Hinsdale bank card, though I no longer have an account there. Also, casual Lamborghini at 8:02 really set the right mood haha!
That's a wonderful trip down memory lane! It's amazing to hear about your personal connections and experiences in Hinsdale. The town has a rich history and has clearly left a lasting impression on you. It's funny how those unexpected moments, like the Lamborghini can add a touch of charm to a place. Speaking of which, I actually have a cool pic of a Ferrari in the downtown as well. It's those little things that make exploring Hinsdale so special.

Did they ever find enough money to continue high school athletics like most school districts or do the kids just not compete because the school district is so poor ?
Thanks for your comment! Hinsdale has always been supportive of its student-athletes, and the district is committed to providing high-quality and competitive extracurricular activities. The district has invested heavily in its athletic program over the years, and the student-athletes have plenty of opportunities to compete and show their skills. Thanks again for your comment!
