We met Kevin and Kelly at Stucky's in Johnsburg. Everyone had a fish fry but me since they have one of my favorite hamburgers, the Dublin Burger for just the month of March, something about a St. Patrick's thing.
This burger consists of a half pound of beef on a marble rye bun along with corned beef, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. This is one of my all-time favorites. But just once a year in March, so gotta eat 'em when I can.
SATURDAY, MARCH 12
Just found out that they will be tearing down my freshman dorm at NIU, Lincoln Hall. A bit of history goes with it. They already have torn down Liz's dorm, Douglas Hall. Lincoln and Douglas Halls were built at the same time in the early 1960s.
This is the day many places are celebrating St. Patrick's Day, especially McHenry and Lake Villa. McHenry has a parade, bar crawl, dying of the Fox River to green and a huge tent with bands all day and e into the evening. But, today and yesterday are two of the coldest days I ever remember. Temps were in the low 20s, but the wind really blew it through you.
As such, we didn't go to anything. We did drive to McHenry to go to the Legion, but there were cars parked all over the place so decided not to try to get in. Drove over to the McHenry Moose Lodge and had a corned beef & cabbage dinner and then to Stucky's for $1 drafts and karaoke.
SUNDAY, MARCH 13
We went to Stucky's on the afternoon for their NASCAR party.
