Finally, Portillo’s restaurant

We left South Bend on Memorial day heading towards Woodstock, Il. to our son’s driveway. Ran into lots of traffic and heavy rain which made for a stressful 180 mile drive. Heavy rain, heavy traffic, and lots of big trucks do not make for a fun day. Linda has been salivating for several weeks for a Portillo’s (well in Linda’s case Barnelli’s) chopped salad. After we got lots of hugs and kisses Jeff drove us down to the Portillo/Barnelli restaurant (both are in the same building).

Linda got her chopped salad

Had some problems with my new dish, and also ordered the HD DVR receiver from Directv. A serviceman came out yesterday and got everything working.

and we went back to Portillo/Barnelli again yesterday.

Looks like lots of rain for the next week…..as if the humidity is not high enough already!!!!! and the mosquito's….oh yea….they are here….

Take care

Love to all of ya

Jim and Linda
