One Week-- Part 2: Communication, Radio, Bars, Wings and a Band

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14

Most days at 10 a.m., I listen to Bob Stroud's Ten at Ten on Chicago's WDRV, 97.1 FM, the Drive.  All  this month they are letting listeners give their ten songs and make comments during the show.  Today's was from a Palatine gal, Cindy Mitchell.  Liz and I both lived in Palatine during high school.  Her topic today was Communication.  She did a fine job.

THE LETTER--  Joe Cocker
COMMUNICATION  BREAKDOWN--  Led Zeppelin
OPERATOR--  Jim Croce

TAKE A LETTER MARIA--  R,B. Greaves
DIALOGUE (PART 1 AND 2)--  Chicago

She did a REALLY GOOD JOB!!

Drove to Donovan's Reef in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin and then to Sunnyside in Johnsburg, Illinois.  A bi-state quest for liquid refreshment.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 15

Did some shopping in McHenry, Illinois, and some yard work. Then drove to Bootleggers on Grasslake Road and met Kevin and Kelly and enjoyed the 50 cent wings and $1 draft pints.

Then went to the It's Thursday show in Antioch, Illinois, at the bandshell.  Tonight's band was the Piano Man who performed the music of Billy Joel and Elton John.
