Springfield Home Tour starts today!

If anyone is in or close to the Jacksonville area or maybe you are going to watch The Players Championship in person, I highly sugguest that you come to Springfield's Home Tour starting today and going on through Sunday. The neighborhood always showcases some of the best homes and gardens and this year they even have a free bike tour on Saturday. So if your in the neighborhood, come on out and join the fun.

We're number 1

Well not really, but my neighborhood made Southern Livings 'Best Comeback Neighborhood'. Pretty cool, huh? Hopefully this will change the minds of most Jacksonvillians. Most everyone in the burbs believes my neighborhood to be rat infest, crime ridden and basically a big homeless shelter. Now it's not perfect by no means, but we're getting there. I think this will finally shed some light on Springfield. Thanks a lot Southern Living!

Old postcards and photos of Springfield

Here are some photos and postcards I found of my neighborhood. Boy, was it beautiful then, I wish we still had the trolley going through Main St. Anyways enjoy!
