Yesterday, after listening to Bob Stroud do his Rock and Roll Roots show featuring the top 15 Kinks songs in honor of Dave Davies' birthday, we hit the road for a little good timing in the area.
First, we headed over to Antioch, Illinois, and went to the Sequoit Lodge on the main street which bills itself as a Northwoods Lodge and lives up to the boast.
Sunday mornings they are packed for their great breakfast and even live entertainment from 10 to noon. Where else are you going to get live entertainment (always better than dead) at that time? Plus, this past weekend, they had pints of Miller Lite and Bud Light for 50 CENTS!!
After the duo finished playing, we got NTN boards and played trivia for awhile and had four top twenties.
ELSEWHERE
We had planned to stop at Choppers on Illinois 173 on the way back for their $4 pitchers and 25 cent wings, but their parking lot was full.
So headed north into Wisconsin to the village of Wilmot and went to Mar's Trading Post Inn which dates back to the 1840s and is a real Wisconsin bar. We had $1 pints and $1.75 Bloody Marys.

Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
