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

A Losing Football and Baseball Kind of Weekend

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16TH--  Went shopping in McHenry.  usual Suspects at the Legion.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17TH--  Drove to Arlington Heights and had a great breakfast with Bob and Marilyn.  Then he drove to Evanston and had a nice walk to Ryan Field past some really pretty older homes with beautiful landscaping as the fall colors were starting.  Unfortunately, Northwestern lost to Iowa, but an absolutely great fall day for college football.

Afterwards we went to Sports Page in Arlington Heights to eat.  Stopped at Half-Price Books in Palatine on my way home.  This is my favorite store.

Liz and I went to several places that were too crowded before we found places to sit at the bar at the Legion to watch the Cubs game.  Unfortunately another loss to the Mets.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER  18TH--  Met the Usual Suspects at Squaw Bar for the Bears-Lions game.  Unfortunately another loss in a game Chicago could have won.  Then sat out by the lake at Kevin and Kelly's.  Came home and watched another Cubs loss.  Those pitchers and that Murphy guy are killing us.
