Tuesday, August 2, 2011. The Old Gebhard Brewery (Morris, IL). As we've written here before. You never know what history lies right in your backyard.

The Prairie Stater: The Heroes of Seneca, IL
http://theprairiestater.blogspot.com/2011/08/heroes-of-seneca-il.html
Wednesday, August 3, 2011. The Heroes of Seneca, IL. Seneca, IL, is a small Illinois River town that sits in LaSalle County, IL (with a small portion in Grundy County), between the towns of Morris and Marseilles. That all changed a few weeks ago, when I learned that Seneca played a key role in America's victory effort during World War II. It turns out that Seneca wasn't just home to some shipyard — it was once home to a massive shipyard that constructed "Landing Ship, Tank" (LST). Here is a great article.
