Roadies without Amps (7/27-7/30/25)

Bob and I said our good-byes to my mom yesterday after a great belated birthday lunch for her from my aunt and her daughter.

On Sunday night, we had our first visit to a Wisconsin supper club when we had dinner at Frederick’s Supper Club in Milton, Wisconsin, with my godmother (and aunt) and her husband. In another life, the supper club was a different restaurant where Bob and I had our rehearsal dinner before our wedding 30+ years ago.

Three of us had a grasshopper drink for dessert,
which is another staple of supper clubs.

Today, Bob and I packed the car in the rain and left Janesville, to drive 7 hours (plus a loss of an hour) to Streetsboro, Ohio, which is a suburb of Cleveland. Our drive took us briefly through Wisconsin, since Janesville is so close to the border of Illinois, south and east of Chicago, before entering and driving across the width of Indiana, and then into Ohio, as far as the Cleveland area.

We were happily traveling east,
as the traffic going west was at a standstill.

Tomorrow’s drive to Poughkeepsie, New York, seems like it will be rain-filled. We lucked out today and only had rain for the first 30 minutes and then briefly again at the end of our drive in Indiana.
