Crest Hill is my neck of the woods. Not my hood but my neck of the woods. I got there after providing rides to Frankfort, Tinley Park, Oak Lawn, Auburn-Gresham, The Godfrey Hotel, blah blah then out to Bolingbrook and as always, when approaching home turf I consult Gas Buddy for the best price on all possible routes toward home.
If it was nicer weather, I sure would have liked to sneak a walk along the lakefront or maybe just about anywhere in the Loop...for the city vibe.
No to the mask, yes to the wipe--quick swipes at a stop sign or pull-over which probably endangers my life more than saving others.
When riding back of my older brother's Harley, decades back, bikers give a little wave to one another. Same on hiking (biking) trails. Rideshares are too numerous to do that, but I am waving on the inside....and cursing (competition!!!!)
