Friends are always saying that we're retired, why don't we move to Florida or Arizona or some place else. Well, despite horrendous property taxes and gas prices (still $4.16 in Fox Lake because of the recent spike, see the last two days entries in my Down Da Road I Go Blog), this is still a fun place to live.
Taking a look at what we've done since I got back:
JULY 24TH, WEDNESDAY
Movie double feature: "Ted" and "The Dark Night Rises." Tommy's for $10 pizza and $1 bottles.
JULY 25TH, THURSDAY
Train to Chicago and breakfast at Lou Mitchell's and Route 66 walk with Dave Clark and Denny Gibson. NTN at Snuggery in Union Station. Buck Charcoburgers and mug of root beer at Dog 'N Suds and NTN at J's.
JULY 26TH, FRIDAY
Movie "The Amazing Spiderman", shopping, Sunset over Fox Lake at Stormy Monday's deck. American Legion.
JULY 27TH, SATURDAY
Watched Terry and Greg Spizzirri play on deck and tiki bar of Docks in Wauconda, overlooking Bang's Lake during the afternoon. C Factor Band at Captain's Quarters, Tommy's.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
