And, even better, eight of us met up at Checkers II restaurant in "downtown" Union (there isn't much of a downtown) before the meeting and enjoyed conversation and good food, including me being "trucked" by what they called the Portabella Burger.
It was listed under handcrafted sandwiches (which also included burgers) and I figured it was a hamburger paddy topped by a huge mushroom and it also included three of my favorite things on any sandwich, but especially on a burger and that would be sauteed onions, peppers and melted bleu cheese. All served on a pretzel roll.
Wow, my mouth watered at this prospect.
But, when I got it. there was no hamburger. A huge slice of portabella mushroom took the place of the burger paddy. Disappointed, but I bit into it and boy, was that good. I'd order it again, even without a burger.
We then adjourned over to the McHenry County Historical Society Museum for the meeting.
Everyone was required to wear face masks and social distancing was practiced.
