My BIRTHDAY today! Places of travel.

joeykoinsjoeykoins Posts: 16,593 ✭✭✭✭✭

Hi guys,
Yes, another year towards retirement. My 65th.
Traveling short trips around town with my better half.

Joliet State Prison in Joliet, IL.





Blues Brothers fame

Beggar's Pizza in Mokena,IL.




Starbucks, in Tinley Park, IL.



That's it. Nothing special this year.
Thanks
;)

    Happy birthday my coin brother 😊
    Sooooo, who were you visiting at the prison?

    Lol
    The Prison has been defunct for quite some time now. Even before the " Blues Brother's" movie.
    That's funny, Joe.
    Thanks

    Maybe he wasn't visiting...they let him out early for good behavior. :D

    Kidding of course! Happy Birthday!

    I thought he was younger also. Must be all the coin roll hunting that keeps him young.

    So I see the chronology starts with you in prison at Joliet, and it’s your birthday, so apparently they gave you a Day Pass to get out for your birthday for good behavior, so you went out to enjoy some fresh pizza, burgers, and then ended up with nice coffee before you had to head back, lol.

    Happy Birthday! Welcome to Medicare!

    You just missed the Blues Brothers at Joliet. The pizza looks very good. I’ll have to try it someday.

    Yes, me and the wife were seriously contemplating to go, Lake Geneva. The last minute we decided to explore the neighborhoods, instead. Besides, it's a whole lot cheaper!

    Thanks
    However, I'm still off of work for a week.
    We still might be heading for some
