  Any Relation To Mike Anastasia Who In 2008 Is Blue Island's City Chief of Staff???

• JohnDePorter said:

  Intersting. I was born in Moline and grew up in Rock Island. I have been to Blue Island many times over the course of my trucking career. I now live in Oregon but it's still intersting to see new pics of the history of the ROCK pop up every now and then. john

  Look at the calkins on the shoes! [the heels of the iron horsehoes] these were meant to give traction when hauling heavy loads, but could cause problems by throwing the foot off balance. Great looking horse, though-I love the dapples.
