Wow- beautiful pics! I have been seeking out info regarding Chicago's north shore (my husband, 4 kids and I might be moving to the Chicago area from Phoenix) not realizing how beautiful the western burbs are! Those McMansions don't appeal to me at all but it appears that St.Charles and Wheaton have a lot of character. I think I'll spend more time checking out those areas as well. Thanks for giving us a glimpse!

Thats what the pics are there for. Definitely check out many western burbs, a lot of them are wonderful places to live.
