Bob Stroud played Ten at Ten from that great college year for me, 1972, including "Ventura Highway" by America and "Sunshine" by Jonathan Edwards. Took me back.
Drove to Woodstock and saw the movie "Minions: the Rise of Gru." Gotta love those little yellow guys. Then met some Civil War buffs at 3 Brothers restaurant in Il. Highway 47 and then to The Woodstock Library for a presentation on the USS Merrimac(k)/ CSS Virginia. I especially like presentations on anything Civil War Navy.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 11
Went to Captain's Quarters on Fox Lake and had those great 50 cent wings and a good talk wih a Sox fan where we figured out that the Sox really have stunk up the place this season. Drove to Wisconsin and got gas just over the border for $3.87 ($3.86.9) which is 45 cents cheaper than in Illinois. A whole lot of Illinois folks near the border do this these days.
Then went to Antioch's It's Thursday concert featuring a good party band, 28 Days.
