Last Saturday offered an array of options. Number one was a trip to "Drunk in the Park" in the afternoon at the McHenry Fiesta Days where they block off River Side Street and have bands and the bars offer beer which you can drink on the street. Always a real fun time. Then, we were going to go to Sunnyside in Johnsburg for their Christmas in July Golf Cart Parade, party and band outside.
Sunday was to be the huge McHenry Fiesta Days parade at one, a band at the VFW at 3 and a stop at the McHenry American Legion afterwards for their "Adequate" $2.50 Bloody Marys. Either this or the Antioch Taste of Summer festival and a band outside in the afternoon.
But, things sure didn't work out as planned.
STAURDAY, JULY 17
There was no "Drunk in the Park" in McHenry. And, we weren't the only disappointed people there. We ended up in the American Legion where we drowned our sorrows.
We went over to Sunnyside Tavern, but there were no parking places to be had, so went to nearby Stucky's to wait and see if there were any openings at Sunnyside, but enjoyed the $1 pints and then went home.
SUNDAY, JULY 18
Sunday, the plan was to see the McHenry Fiesta Days parade, but we were too late to get to it. Ended up back at the Legion, enjoyed the Bloody Marys and Happy Hour prices. They had a karaoke guy there and had fun with that.
Stopped at Sunnyside on the way back home.
