JSS: Dadburn Beetles-- Thanks, We Needed That-- Boated to 27 Bars-- Stroud Crowd to Woodstock

JSS-- Just Some Stuff


1. DADBURN BEETLES-- Still battling those voracious appetites of the Japanese beetles, making daily sweeps. Thousands of the varmints have died, but more appear to take their place. At least they didn't eat all the leaves off the mountain ashes like last year.

Hopefully the Home Shield will kick in soon to take care of the home-grown beetles. Unfortunately, they can't do anything about the fly-ins.

I REALLY HATE those guys.


2. THANKS, WE NEEDED THAT-- We had a steady rain both Sunday night/Monday morning, and again last this morning. We were needing it. Glad I cut the grass yesterday.


3. BOATED TO 27 BARS-- Last Wednesday, we went to bars 26 and 27 by water on the Chain of Lakes area. Old Bridge and Bimbo's were both on the Fox River in McHenry, Illinois. Our objective is to hit every place between Illinois Highway 173 and Broken Oar, way south on the Fox River. We believe there are still about 6 or 7 places we haven't been to.

Since returning from the Mediterranean cruise, I have stayed home except three trips to Wisconsin. This area is a great place to spend a vacation, and we HAVE to live here.


4. STROUD CROWD TO WOODSTOCK-- As I expected, Bob Stroud had a Woodstock 40 Years On show on his Sunday Rock and Roll Roots Show. I'll be showing the songs he played with comments later this week.
