Seriously. I'm going to finish this project.

In the meantime, an update on organized walking in Springfield:
"The 6th year of Second Saturday Walking Tours will begin again in April. We're finalizing a few of the details, but the list as it stands is below.

"In the meantime, you might want to take a virtual walking tour with architect (and regular tour-giver) Stephen Jablonski, who was recently featured on WGBY talking about some of the architectural details you might never have noticed on Springfield buildings: Video here (about 4 minutes long).

"Here is our 2011 line-up so far:
• April -- Luann Hood: African American Heritage Trail and PAHMUSA
• May -- Keith Korbut: Automotive History of Springfield
• June -- Burt Freedman: Trees of the City
• July -- Ben Murphy: 'City Beautiful' Movement
• August -- TBD
• September -- Fran Gagnon: Eliot Street, Past & Present, History of St. Michael's Parish
• October -- Bill Devlin: Topic TBA
• November -- TBD"
