Lake Villa, Illinois..... home of fun slides, bratwurst, backyards for days, and Jenilee Houghton. To think that we almost had Jen come to Chicago to meet us, thus missing out on this gem of a town, comforts me and solidifies that the sweet lord baby Jesus is protecting us on our journey. Much of the day trip is too hard to describe so be on the lookout for the edited video of our day at the Lake Villa Festival (done masterfully by jeff... Co-creator of hittheroadjeffandmike.com)
Fried foods, Midwestern sluts, jeff on a kiddie ride, and the three of us making our way through a sea of piercing judgement from every direction. We want to thank Jen for offering up her home and her festival..... it was AMAZING to see her.
While at the festival, we were introduced to a new competitive "sport" that is sure to be on the roster for the 2016 Olympics. "Firehose pressured water moving steel barrel" (working title) consists of thick calved, angry girls rolling up their jersey sleeves and aiming firehoses at a steel barrel in a classic game of water pressure tug-o-war. Jeff and I will be starting a zogsports team the second we get back.
We will be back with more, but we have to get up early for the Wisconsin lakehouse with the Blims!! Plus I have to digest this bratwurst...
