The Sixpenny Bit - Chicago

The Sixpenny Bit is in the Portage Park neighborhood.  When we took pictures outside, we were immediately questioned.  Somehow, the pictures from inside are not in my owner's phone anymore - which is odd.  So, not much to this one, other than the two outdoor pictures.



10¢ wings at The Rail - Chicago

10¢ wings!  My owner, two friends and I split fifty.  Well, I guess I didn't eat any, so the three of them split fifty.  The place is called The Rail (which is in the Ravenswood neighborhood) and this is something they do every Monday night.  We got them hot, Teriyaki and BBQ flavored.  Hoegaarden, BBK and Fat Tire were the beers of the night - pictured, anyway.

All fifty in their glory

Three, not so much glory (turns out there were actually more than fifty)

Starbucks #20 - Janesville

Well, number twenty.  Wow.  This Starbucks is in Janesville, Wisconsin.  My owner worked on his laptop for a long time, he also read a bit.  It was a relatively busy location, but the pictures below won't really show that aspect of it.

Starbucks #20 for Ollie!  (second one in Wisconsin)

Janesville and Time Out Pub & Eatery

We walked around Janesville, WI for a bit, then had lunch at Time Out Pub & Eatery.  The Rock River (which is a tributary of the Mississippi) flows through Janesville, I liked watching it, thinking of traveling on a boat or something.  There were some nice sights in the city as well.

At Time Out the beer was Spotted Cow (which is only available in Wisconsin) and the food was a burger.  It was tasty.

All other activities?

Rock County courthouse

Civil War Monument

WWF pandas?

Wisconsin Welcome Center - Beloit

Wisconsin Welcomes You!  Recreation, Industry, Agriculture.  This is the sign that welcomes us when we stop at the Wisconsin Welcome Center in Beloit, WI.

It's a rest area too, so a traveler can do his or her business.  After concluding his/her business, he/she can go pee or poo in the toilets that are available there, too.

Starbucks - Arlington Heights (Euclid & Salt Creek)

Wow, number nineteen.  What more can I say?  I'm almost out of my teens, with respect to Starbucks.

Starbucks #19 for Ollie!
