We went for a walk and a little shopping at Old Orchard Mall in Skokie IL on Saturday. This was a 60-degree day and very sunny. I really enjoyed myself. You never will get tired of coming to this place because they change it up often. The management sets up different displays, fountains and there are art fairs and craft exhibits that people love to attend. I clocked in at 5 miles just bopping around the mall. Many people want to move to some of the many areas near Old Orchard just to have easy access to the facilities.You can find Nordstrom’s, Abercrombie & Fitch, Ann Taylor, Macys and every other major department store available as well as many one of a kind boutique shops. Tons of restaurants such as Roka Akor, Muggiano’s and some inexpensive burger joints that the kids love.Old Orcha...
