OCTOBER 12TH, 2014:
It sure hurt to have our 28-game home winning streak snapped yesterday, especially since it was homecoming. But, Central Michigan played well, we played extremely badly.
After I had the continental breakfast at the Baymont, I took a drive around campus and the Lagoon. Stopped there and took a walk around the beautiful body of water, always one of the prettiest spots on campus and with the castle, Altgeld Hall looming over it. I found the stone with the plaque for William Goose (we called him Gus Goose), honorary NIU student.
Out to Sycamore Road (Il-23) and went to Lowe's, Wal-Mart and Barnes & Nobles.
Back to the hotel and then Liz and I ate at Culver's and drove to Genoa and took Genoa Road to Belvidere and then US-20 to Marengo where we watched the Packer game and the Marengo Settlers Days parade at North Side Tavern.
Then, drove to McHenry to Twisted Moose and watched Da Bears defeat the Falcons and then home.
Definitely a Football Weekend. --RoadDog
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.
