The look of Cherokee has changed considerably since InterMarquers were last here. The tables and shelters are still there but the trees have been decimated by the emerald ash bore pandemic so it\u2019s a lot more empty than it used to be. Think those trees will be taller next June? And more people and some cool cars? I hope so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andy Lindberg, <a href=\"mailto:Andyrlind@gmail.com\">andyrlind@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>-Update by Andy Lindberg &#8211; Linda and I had a picnic lunch in Cherokee Park before Labor Day.
