Touching sign filled with interesting bits of history about this store, and their philosophy. I first saw this sign in stoneofzanzibar's photos a while back, but had forgotten which store had it. Some items:
"Oak Brook Borders opened over 20 years ago across the street. We were the first (and will hopefully be the last) Borders in Illinois." [Orland Park & Moline were technically the last open.]
"This Borders location has donated more bags of coffee to the troops than any other in the company!"
"One employee even got married in the store by the GM. That's Borders love!"
Interesting fact: I was tipped off that Borders.com was shutting down today; I saw I had an hour left to use a gift card. I'd FORGOTTEN I had an old $10 gift card until after all the stores had closed. I used it about 11 minutes before it expired according to the site, so I wound up one of the VERY last Borders customers! (And yes, have a few photos left to post as of 9/27.)
American and Canadian flags fly over the "International Flag Plaza" on the Canada side of the border. I think there was a similar installation on the other side? Maybe? Not close enough to get a picture of though.
Borders buses No.11227 working service X62 from Peebles crosses from South Bridge to North Bridge and is less than 10 minutes from the end of the trip into town from the border towns.
Canada/US Border, Glacier National Park, MT and Waterton Lakes National Park, AB. Canadian side of stone border marker, looking into the US. When you hike the 10 mile trail from the Waterrton town in Canada to the Goat Hunt Ranger station in the US, this is where you cross the border. There's nothing but signs/markers, you have to go another few miles to the Goat Haunt Ranger station for Customs/Immigration.

In 1938 Czechoslovakia mobilized against the German threats of war, but hat to give in to the Munich Agreement and withdraw from the border fortifications, even if the army was fully capable to stand against the Wehrmacht. After this not only Germany, but also Poland and Hungary ripped pieces of land from the country, and there were also extensive fights with insurgents, which cost lives of many Czechoslovak soldiers and gendarmes. Today it´s a tradition to reenact how the situation could be, when we would have defended ourselfs. It´s a fact that Hitler was affraid of the Czechoslovak military, which at that time had better tanks, more heavy guns, and a very effective fortification system. Of course we win in the reenactments :-)

This picture is from a window display in the Borders on Liberty Street in Ann Arbor, Michigan, celebrating Borders' 40th anniversary.
I think this is the staff. Anyone know the date? The names of people?
