Rochelle Illinois

If you love fried chicken, the best you'll ever eat is just 30 minutes South of Rockford.

UPDATE: The lock down at Rochelle Township High School has been lifted and here's the reason why it was put into place.

Move over trains and semis, Rochelle is looking to the skies for attracting business. So much so that it leaves me wondering if the 'Hub City' will become known as 'Drone City.'

As sad as I am to see the Hub theater in Rochelle go, I'm really excited for this next chapter in it's life. As the renovations have begun to transform it into a distillery.

As an Illinoisan, hearing about our state's troubles has become a common occurrence. However, I love it when you see things like this. A northern Illinois town just a little over 30 mins from Rockford is defying the odds.

When you think of fall what comes to mind? Changing of leaves, apples, apple cider, pumpkins, corn stalks and of course hay bales. A city south of Rockford is getting creative with a festival that's all about hay.

Well this is exciting news! Toyota-Mazda has their eyes on two northern Illinois cities, that are close to Rockford, for their new auto making plant.

If you're a fan of Dunkin' Donuts, well life is gonna get that much sweeter for you as the franchise is coming to this town that's about 30 minutes south of Rockford.

A Rochelle business purchased a smoker grill on Craigslist for a steal. Come to find out it really was a steal because the grill was stolen from a Chicago bar.

Looking for something fun and unique this weekend. Check out the city of Rochelle's first ever Hay Day this Saturday.
