This past weekend was another one of those great times out here in northeast Illinois in the famed Chain of Lakes.
FRIDAY, June 18
We finally had some much-needed rain all morning. We met a group of friends at Stucky's in Johnsburg for their great Fish Fry. I just love a good Friday night fish fry.
SATURDAY, June 19
The big news is that Vince came over and installed a new starter in my '85 Firebird and it now runs!!! He had it all winter and it is fixed up as good as new, so there will be some good times in it this summer. We've had it since it was new.
During the afternoon, we went over to Rosie's Italian Eatery on Grasslake, one of the Chain of Lakes, to see a band that was playing on their deck. Unfortunately, the place was packed so we didn't even go in. Since we were already over in that area, we decided to check out the Sunset Grille where we found a duo playing outside and a place to sit so ended up there.
Nothing like ice cold beer, the sun, a band and sitting outside here in the Chain of Lakes, especially with everything opening up again after you-know-what.
Afterwards, a group of us went back to Stucky's to get a bite to eat and enjoy their $1 draft beers.
SUNDAY, June 20
Bob Stroud hosted his annual Rock and Roll Roots Salute to Summer, so that was a good way to welcome the season.
In the afternoon, we went over to the McHenry American Legion and enjoyed their "adequate" $2.50 Bloody Marys and an assortment of beer.
Like I Said, Good Times in the Area. It's Good to be Back!! --RoadFun
