Blog Entry: Mattoon-A City For All Seasons

Per Jules' comment I will make a 'real' blog. I WAS going to wait until something worth reading happened, but here goes.

Yesturday another worker asked if I'd go w/ her on a trip to Mattoon. A chance to get out of the office and build some more comp. time. Of course I said yes. We got there around noon so we started looking for a restaurant. At first we were discouraged by the multitude of ratty bars (that were closed). They looked worse then the depot-or the sandbar. But then Susan asked "Do you want to try the Burger King?" OF COURSE!! How could I have forgotten? Mattoon's claim to fame-home of the Original Burger King and Frigid Queen! The second we entered I signed the Guest Book. It was terrific, historic, filled with life long memories. I can't wait to go back!
