FRIDAY-- Dropped the car off at Ray Chevrolet who said they could have it ready to go by early tomorrow morning. Tookthe boat out for a float around Fox Lake.
During the aforementioned storm, we were having one of the best fish fries around at Popeye's in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, with that great view of the lake. We then played NTN at Donovan's.
SATURDAY-- The car wouldn't be ready until noon so were forced to go boating again. Afterwards, I went to Round Lake Beach, Illinois, for their Beach Fest for awhile and ate at Sammie's where I ran into one of my former 7th grade students working behind the counter. She just graduated and enters Northern Illinois University thisfall studying to be math teacher. She also had Liz in 3rd grade. I told her about our new teaching scholarship and hope she gets it.
Came home and sat out in the gazebo listening to music and having cocktails.
SUNDAY-- Sat out in the gazebo again listening to Bob Stroud's Rock and Roll Roots.
Then, I worked on the flower bed by the gazebo.
We had crablegs and roast beef at the China Buffet and then met friends at Captain's Quarters on Fox Lake where we saw an excellent Southern Rock band called the Nightburners. They even had a fiddle player.
Came home and sat out on the deck for some more cocktails. Came inside and watched the rest of "The Blues Brothers" my second all-time favorite movie. It was released nationally on this date back in 1980.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
