We spent an hour roaming Palatine photographing whatever caught our eye. The obvious and the obscure, big stuff and small. But all identifiable to Palatine.
Look for a new town gallery every Sunday at dailyherald.com/galleries and on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
On our social media sites, share your favorite Palatine photos with us by using #shareyoursuburb.
And tell us what photos are your favorites. Which ones stir a memory for you? Where do you love to go in town?
