Today being Friday we kept a long tradition of biking with Dave and Patti and Len and Marlene. We rode the Moraine Trail for 12.5 miles through forest preserve and rewsted part way through at the McHenry Dam. I caught a couple of egrets in the river switching positions.
After our ride, we all went to Culvers for lunch. This is an upper mid-west fast food place that should make McDonalds fear for their first position nationally...their burgers are way better than Micky D's and you can get really good soup and sundaes as well!
At some point in the future, I want to come back and try their "all you can eat" fried chicken on Tuesdays! Whee....
Actually, they have more than just chicken...
You can get :
fresh hand-breaded fried chicken dinner and a choice of two: french fries, homestyle mashed potatoes and gravy, cole slaw, seasoned green beans.
Then a warm dinner roll. You can add as many pieces of chicken as you'd like. The catch...eat in only; that will not be a problem for me when I am in the area! And it is offered in two locations!
Culver's of Island lake and Culver's of McHenry....Decisions, decisions.
Oh, as if all of that is not enough to get you here; everyday they have different flavors of frozen custard!
