This past weekend was both good and bad.
The GOOD
Friday-- The movie "Drive" and control of jukebox at Gasoline Alley overlooking Grasslake. "OUR MUSIC!!" And, of course, those $1 bottles of beer.
Saturday-- Pumpkin Spice coffee from the Mobil station (20 oz. for $1.29) and $1 McMuffins. Grant High School Homecoming parade (two marching bands). Boating. Round Lake sophomores win their football game. Round Lake varsity scores a TD on opening kick off against Grant.
Captain's Quarters "End of the Season" party on Fox Lake. Free shrimp, fried chicken and shrimp and the band "Sucker Punch." $2.50 Coronas.
Sunday-- Lots of TVs, free brats and cheeseburgers and $5 pitchers at the Squaw Bar on Squaw Creek in Ingleside for Bears game. The Usual Suspects and other Bear fans.
The BAD
Saturday-- Despite scoring a touchdown on the opening kick off, the final score was 48-13, Grant wins. Round Lake drops to 0-6. Have won just one game in the last three years.
Pretty miserable weather.
Can it already be the "End of the Season" for boating? Where did it go?
Sunday-- Da Bears be REAL Bad. Losing to...Green Bay. Packer fans enjoying themselves.

UNIVERSAL TRUTH: I can hit that alarm clock snooze button dead on, everytime, despite being still asleep.
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.
