Bad news from up north. Ryan Urban, an intrepid editor and reporter for the Barron News-Shield texted me saying that the Stone Lake Pub had burned down. This depressing photo was attached:
Sad. That was bar of my childhood summers. My dad would stop in on the way to the dump or to the hardware store or the bait shop or basically anytime we were in or cruising through town. I drank many grape and strawberry Crush's there. Or were they Nehi's?
This comes on the heel of hearing that Chicago's Gale Street Inn closed suddenly. I remember going there as a kid and think my family had been going there for decades. It was one of those places that just had been around my entire life that I was happy to be able to still go to. Well, until now.
All these places from my childhood gone. That's getting old for you, I guess.
