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

Another Great Day here in the Midwest

Sitting out in the gazebo just a two-fingered-typing away on the the old laptop and listening to Uncle Billy Smith on 94.9 the Surf out of Myrtle Beach, SC. Ain't the Internet something? I was just out on the east patio having a cup of coffee and reading yesterday's Chicago Tribune. I'd have read it yesterday, but boating got in the way. The sacrifices I have to make.

Planning on doing some boating later today, then going over to Sequoit Lodge in Antioch for dinner and NTN before getting together with two old Magee teacher buddies, Paul and Karen, for the Antioch It's Thursday concert with Mr. Myers, a great Caribbean rock band we've been following since the 1970s. The Sequoit Lodge bills itself as a North Woods experience, and it is.

Tentative plans for Friday are boating and Richmond, Illinois, for their classic car drive in. Saturday, it's deejaying at the local American Legion for their picnic and perhaps a bonfire out on the Grand strand here at home.

Sunday, perhaps the 25 cent wings at Chopper's on Il-173 and then a band at Mar's Trading Post Inn in Wilmot, Wisconsin.
