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

Just Hangin' Around-- Part 4: Basketball, SAL. the '85 Firebird and Officially Old

APRIL 4, MONDAY--  Went to J's with Kevin and Kelly and played quite well at NTN with two #2s and a #5 nationwide.  had their great BLT pizza.  SAL (Sons of the American Legion) meeting and I will be working on Legion Day at our American Legion baseball team.

That NCAA Championship game was one for the ages and made up for those two boring Final Four games Saturday.  Congratulations Villanova.  I was pulling for Carolina, but, WOW!!  I rank it right up there with the Duke-Kentucky game all those years ago when Christian Laettner nailed the winning bucket as time expired.

APRIL 5, TUESDAY--  Liz had a doctor appointment in Mchenry and we ate at IHOP on the way back.  I received my Medicare card.  Guess that means I'm old now.  Officially.  I took the '85 Firebird out for its first run of the year.  Hey, and Meijer had restocked several new bricks of audio cassettes so had to buy some.

APRIL 6, WEDNESDAY--  Rain and overcast all day.  Where is spring?  Went to Donovan's and The grove.

APRIL  7, THURSDAY--  Another really cold day with a little snow, but no accumulation.  Everyone is wondering where spring is.  Ate at Steak 'N Shake in McHenry, one of my favorite places.    Bought three tables to replace the outside and sunroom glass top tables that somehow all three managed to self destruct last fall.  The sunroom one just exploded into thousands of tempered glass shards.
