For Vocalo.org:
I'm Chris Hedges with the Northwest Indiana blogs you should take a moment to check out.
This edition focuses on bloggers with Gary, Indiana on their mind.
All of the links can be found on NWIblogs.com.
Andy Guy of Great Lakes Guy notes that Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels didn't mention Gary in his State of the State address and says that cities like Gary with clean accessible waterfronts will have the upper hand in the new economy of the future.
J in the UK writes about Gary, Indiana after viewing a website showing the desolation of empty and abandoned buildings in the steel city. She looks back on her days of youth listening to her grandfather tell her stories about the glory days of Gary while riding to a downtown barbershop.
Jen at Say My Name says Gary, Indiana can be summed up as Holiness or Hell, quoting her grandmother Posie. Contrasts in the Magic City abound. A beautiful lake front and abandoned houses. Churches on street corners and drug dealers. Religious booksellers or adult bookstores.
And. educator Brad Phillips blogs about his excitement at starting a new teaching job at a Gary, Indiana school.
Make sure to keep up with what's happening in Northwest Indiana's growing blogosphere at NWIblogs.com.
