Huh. I realize that I never posted about the last day of our wander, as we headed home a week ago. We left Fond du Lac, completely forgetting to take pictures of some of the buildings downtown. Next time, Fond du Lac, next time. We headed over to Beaver Dam to get breakfast. WONDERFUL sign and place. I think I should have probably gone with pie, but you know me, I stick to my standards. It was ok, although I requested the hash browns extra crispy and you can't convince me those anemic hash brows are extra crispy. Despite that, we loved the place. A classic. I mean, just LOOK at it!
Then, we headed down the road to Columbus, Wisconsin. Remember, I am planning to visit ALL the Louis Sullivan banks. Of course I was on a Sunday and I couldn't go inside AND the sun was in absolutely the worst position for photos but, hell, I was there, and it was indeed a little jewel box.
A nice little furniture sign across from the bank.
Our plan was to then get on the highway and just zoom home but damn, I couldn't take it. We got off in Belvidere, Illinois which was quite charming. Stopped for nourishment at a cute bar with a charmless bartender and then meandered our way home.
Look at this little beauty.
And then we were home. Both boys came down to ask how it had been and listened so sweetly as I told them FAR more than they wanted to hear. I love them so.
The next morning chemo. And now, another Monday tomorrow.
Onward.
