The Trip to Flash Taco and Smoke Daddy's

Be aware that I am a derelict and this will be a derelict blog.  That is that I am derelict in doing those things that are expected.  This I guess is one of them.  We had an appointment in Wicker Park that we needed to keep but we really did not need to go tromping around anymore than that.  I however chose for both of us to tromp around to a taco joint and a bbq joint.  Then when we were home I chose to tromp out Walgreen's and back.  Then I also trudged out to Jewel through the snow and Sears and of course back again.  The scene in Sears was indeed in stark contrast to the few days before Christmas.  Ghost town.  Close to the same on the buses and train but not quite so empty.

We took the Blue Line to the Damen stop and walked to our appointment.  We then went back to the six cornered intersection and got tacos at Flash Taco.  First time then on the Damen bus we found the southbound stop.  At the stop we saw a service dog we know.  Bus stop to Division where we figured out that if we headed south on the bus east was to our left.  We walked three blocks to Smoke Daddy's.  Funny the Division bus was not given as an option on the CTA trip planner.  This would be the place to plug the Visual CTA Chicago project currently in infancy on my Github.  After enjoying a brisket sandwich and sweet potato fries we did catch the Division bus to the Blue line at another six cornered intersection and home.

In this case the journey is the journey and the destinations.
