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

Second Weekend of This Year: Donovan's, 45 Diner, Stucky's, Da Bears and Sunnyside

THURSDAY, JANUARY 6

We met Kevin and Kelly at Donovan's Reef in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin. for happy hour and trivia.

FRIDAY, JANIARY 7

The extreme cold continues.  Drove to the Bristol 45 Diner in Bristol, Wisconsin, and met the Magee teachers.  Always good to get together with old friends.  Got gas in Trevor, Wo., for $3 a gallon.  It was $3.465 at Rock Corner just over the Illinois border which is why I fill up with gas in Wisconsin.

Later drove to Stucky's on Johnsburg, Illinois, and found that we had low air pressure in all of our tires, more than likely from all this cold weather.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 8

I pit air into all four tires at the Mobil station in Johnsburg (which still has free air, believe it or not) and all the warning features turned off.

Went to Stucky's for the dinner special and $1 draft beers.  We should have come home earlier because it had started sleeting and getting out to the car in the parking lot was all kind of fun.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 9

We didn't go to the McHenry American Legion today because it was closed because of a COVID outbreak.  Went to Sunnyside and watched the Bears lose to end the season with a stellar 6-11 record.  No playoffs for us, obviously.
