Well TWOD is over..after exhausting Cheryl I feel great. Saturday went to a Juneteeth program at Sand ridge nature preserve in So Holland. Had everything from a reenactment of the Underground Railroad trail through illinois(I got my freedom papers to prove I made it to Canada), historical quilts depicting slave codes, black civil war soldier honor guard and plantation deserts (included jelly cakes apple cakes peach cobbler and red velvet cake) even got my can of red pop which I found the slaves and freed blacks were not allowed to drink because it symbolized freedom.fancy that..now I know why red koolaid was so important. Later went to a talk by professor Bob Starks about black political empowerment in early 20th century Chgo at the Hall branch library. Then a quick stop at a very scaled down Lake Meadows Art fair. Worked Sunday and feasted on Thai food from opart restaurant ....did a little paper work and relaxed Satisfied that I had a great week Thanks for all of the BD wishes. Love u all Will add to my list of 60 things in my 60th yr in the coming days the year of deuce TYOD has just begun
