Lou Shields



I always enjoy being around Lou. He's your average guy who happens to teach, skateboard, and write / play music. Okay, not so average but average at heart, nature, a real human being. He is friends to all.

Joliet was a very cool town in its day. The town has gone through its share of changes, however I have to say that I like what is happening now. Chicago Street, where the Chicago Street Pub is located (where Lou played) is going through some really nice renovations.  Chicago Street Pub is a bar / grill located on this street, family type restaurant with a stage for performers. Staff is super sweet and courteous. It is very easy to get to off I-80.

Here are some photographs I took and enjoy.

The Robots at The Track


Always nice to go see / listen to my buddies from the band The Robots, and very nice when playing at The Track Lounge. The first band I ever photographed 13 years ago along with being my first music venue.

A bit slow this night, but made it even friendlier. Stage lighting was set low by the band, which made it super difficult for photography, so I did my thing the best I could. Hope you enjoy the photographs, and if you have not yet, go and enjoy the band!

Woldhuis Farms Sunrise Greenhouse



It is always nice to visit Sunrise Greenhouse and to buy plants. Especially so since I am 4-weeks out of heart surgery. The place is huge, and I felt it during long walk. Good exercise, just a little bit too much at this time, so we did not walk through the entire place. It gave me time so sit on their bench chair swings, and wanting one, yet knowing I don't have a place for one. I need an 80 acre farm!

Of course they have been selling for a while for this season. You can tell by some of the open floor and open overhead basket trolley. The week before Mother's Day will start their busy selling, and just after there will be a lot more open space.

If you have not been there, plan a trip. You will not regret it. Straight down Interstate 394 which later turns into Rt. 1, and turn right road 9000. There is a house right on that intersection and it is possible you may not see the road because of the house. Look for the signs.
