This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

Reopening for This!!! MCCWRT Discission Group Will Be Meeting This Saturday!!!
I have just about gotten caught up with all of the things happening in the new Civil War in my Civil War II: The Continuing War of the Confederacy blog, so hope to have some more time so maybe I can get back to the real Civil War in this blog.
And this is some really good news.
For the first time since February, our McHenry County Civil War Round Table (MCCWRT) discussion group will be holding a get-together in this CV pandemic. We will be meeting at a different site and will be outside and masked as well as social distanced.
Hopefully it won't be too hot (though forecasts call for mid-90s and rain), but, hey, those guys back in the 1860s had to be outside in that kind of weather (and in wool uniforms), so, if they could do it, so can we.
We will be at:
PANERA BREAD ALGONQUIN, Illinois
451 S. Randall Road (Randall and Huntington Drive)
Saturday, July 25
10 A.M. to Noon
This month's topic:
LINCOLN'S 1860 AND 1864 ELECTIONS
Where there's always good discussion and debate.
Also, there is a White Castle and a Half-Price Books nearby, two of my favorite places.
