Meet Me at the Midway [Plaisance]
Jun 100:59:13Tap to summarizeThe last few weeks we spent time diving into the fantasy that was the World’s Columbian Exposition. This has always been an event that I would do anything to go back in time to attend. In reality, if I existed as myself all the way back in 1893, there’s no way I would’ve attended the Fair. At best, I would’ve been on display at the Midway.Show Notes here!
