Partying in the Winter

Despite all the many, many gray, overcast days we've been having, we still managed to enjoy ourselves.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 27

We went over for those great breakfasts at KC's Cabin in Spring Grove (corner of Il-173 and Wilmot Road).  (Buy One, Get One 1/2 Price)  Later that night, it was Sunnyside Tavern in Johnsbirg and Jim Sieg performing.  This is one really fun entertainer.  If you can't party with Jim, you can't party.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 28

Wendy Rice's Saturday Morning Flashback on WXRT featured 1982 and some real great music.  Got together with the Usual Suspects at a showing of Super Bowl XX, which, to us, is THE only Super bowl as it was the one our 1985 Chicago Bears played in.  You know, "Super Bowl Shuffle," Sweetness and the Fridge.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 29

Bob Stroud's Rock and Roll Roots Show on WDRV in Chicago was devoted the Chicago's Blizzard of 1967, all three hours of it.  Now, that was some REALLY GOOD MUSIC.    I listed all the songs he played earlier this week.

We went to the Hickory Lodge in McCullom Lake, Illinois, for their $5 small pizza special and $5 draft pitchers.  Stopped at Sunnyside Tavern on the way home.

YOU'RE DRINKING TOO MUCH COFFEE WHEN:  You're so jittery that people use your hands to blend their margaritas.
