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

Busy Weekend As Well-- Part 2

Still on last weekend.

AUGUST 10TH, SUNDAY:  Boating in the morning, then the Rally By the Lake festival at Fox Lake's Lakefront Park on Nippersink Lake.  Saw a '68 and a '68 Camaro and plenty of those great-looking new Camaros (perhaps my next car).

Then went to the St. John the Baptist Parish Fest in Johnsburg and met some of Liz's former grade school friends in a mini reunion.  One of those former school mates plays guitar with the group New Odyssey who were playing at the fest.  The band puts on a great show, especially with their "In-a-Gadda-da-Vida drum bit, the drum coat and ten-minute, ten Beatle songs-30 instruments bit.  Watch on You Tube.

After that, I went to the "Keep the Spirit of '45 Alive" ceremony in McHenry, Illinois, at Veteran's Park.  This is to honor the World War II veterans and the Greatest Generation.  I am writing about it in my "Tattooed On Your Soul: World War II Blog."
