But, it has been four days, six Vicodin, eighty Advil and a small duodenal ulcer since then. It is Friday and 70 degrees outside and the Sunday before the this whole oral assault happened I spent a fabulous afternoon at a winery on the Coast of Illinois and I wanted to share some photos from our coast.
Eat your vegan hearts out Malibu! |
Oh sure, it's not a Carnival Cruise ship, but then again, there is no random gastrointestinal attacks going on. |
I do not smoke cigars.
Anymore.
Seriously, even without the ocean breeze this is beautiful. |
This is the Coast of Illinois.
Since I have never been there… this is a great way to see the coast of Illinois. To be honest, I didn't know you had a Coast! :-) Stay away from the cigars… LOL!
ReplyDeleteLol! thanks for the comment SuzanneS! and yes, no more cigars for me, although it was fun to be a 'poser'! And, technically, our 'coast' is actually the river's edge of the Mississippi River. But after miss-hearing the lyrics of a song in which the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band said 'Augusta Georgia is just no place to be' but was heard as 'the coast of Georgia is just no place to be' I realized that I did sort of live on a 'coast'. And, while we don't have an ocean or a tide, we have barges and eagles and an enormous stainless steel arch! If you ever make it this way let me know, I will give you a list of must-see places!
