Still on last weekend.
AUGUST 10TH, SUNDAY: Boating in the morning, then the Rally By the Lake festival at Fox Lake's Lakefront Park on Nippersink Lake. Saw a '68 and a '68 Camaro and plenty of those great-looking new Camaros (perhaps my next car).
Then went to the St. John the Baptist Parish Fest in Johnsburg and met some of Liz's former grade school friends in a mini reunion. One of those former school mates plays guitar with the group New Odyssey who were playing at the fest. The band puts on a great show, especially with their "In-a-Gadda-da-Vida drum bit, the drum coat and ten-minute, ten Beatle songs-30 instruments bit. Watch on You Tube.
After that, I went to the "Keep the Spirit of '45 Alive" ceremony in McHenry, Illinois, at Veteran's Park. This is to honor the World War II veterans and the Greatest Generation. I am writing about it in my "Tattooed On Your Soul: World War II Blog."
