FRIDAY, JUNE 25
Another decision day, well, not really.
Quite often we get together with Kevin and Kelly, Barb and Glen and go out to eat at a local restaurant/bar for their fish fry. I am a huge fan of fish fries. They are a carryover from when Catholics couldn't eat meat on Fridays, but fish was ok. Favorites in this area are Cuda's in Antioch, Stucky's in Johnsburg in Illinois and Kelly's and Wilmot Riverside in Wisconsin.
However, tonight, the Spring Grove (Illinois) Fish Hatchery was hosting their annual Fish Boil at Horse Fair Park. At one time, the Spring Grove Fish Hatchery provided small fish for much of the state, but was closed and then bought by the Village of Spring Grove and has since been turned into quite a nice little park with catch and release fishing.
This is their major fundraiser for the year, and of course, they didn't have it last year because of the virus.
So, this is where we went.
The food preparation is done by Fitzgerald's at nearby Genoa City, Wisconsin, which is noted for their fish boils, chicken and ribs. And, their food is sooooooo good. It cost $20 and was all-you-can eat. The place was packed and we also had a very good band playing.
We went to Stucky's afterwards.
