I’ve driven I-94 a hundred times through Wisconsin. Every single time has been boring.

Driving Towards Wisconsin
Heading back from a great weekend in Illinois. I picked up the latest HotelCoffee, which is a periodic podcast of commercial pilot and friend Dan O’Leary. Fun to have a buddy in the car.
I drove through a 80¢ toll and I am driving into very strong winds that likely will hurt my gas mileage in addition to making it hard to drive.
Gino’s East, Rolling Meadows, IL
Ed and I ordered a great pizza. Mmmmm Chicago.
Egg’Lectic Café, Rolling Meadows, IL
With Ed. I had the Strawberry-Chocolate Pancakes. Yum.
Sofia Specialty Food and Liquor, Des Plaines, IL
Very hard to find Rakia from Bulgaria in Minnesota, so I’ve tried to make effort to stop at Sofia Liquor outside of Chicago when I am in the area. Got 3 bottles of Rakia, one of which is from Vinprom Rousse, a winery that I visited a few years ago in Bulgaria. I also got some tea.
R.T. Rybak at the Ukrainian Event Center
R.T. Rybak has just been re-elected mayor of Minneapolis! The last shot is him crowd surfing right into me.
Bryant-Lake Bowl, Minneapolis, MN
Out with Matt for a bite to eat and some good drinks. Right now I am enjoying a Tripel Karmeliet and Matt is having a Samuel Smith Taddy Porter.
