I remember thinking in 99 it was so cool that Carlos Santana had a No. 1 hit after having been away from the charts for quite a while. A truly distinctive guitar style.
State Senate candidate Frank Lesko can’t catch a break. Yesterday I received the endorsement letter from the Sanganon County Republican Central Committee. It endorses Frank Lesko for State Senate 48 and Sally Turner Senate District 44; oops. Turner is the incumbent Democrat Senator Republican Lesko is challenging. Someone didn’t do a good job proofing this; sad.
If you live in Sanganon County and tune in WQNA 95.7 FM between 3 PM and midnight consider dropping them an email and letting them know where you are in the area and how well the signal is coming through. They have adjustments to make on equipment and you can help. They will be playing best of the 1950s, 60s and 70s for the Cruisers in town for the Route 66 Festival. Have a good weekend.
I’ve only lost 2 CDs in my life (that I am aware of). They were both this Santana CD. (I don’t think they were “lost;” it’s so good people couldn’t help themselves.) Was very happy to finally buy it online to not lose it again. Fabulous Friday choice, Isabel.
The crew list of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1914 — headed by Sir Ernest Shackleton — included one American:
William Bakewell, born in Joliet Illinois.
Bakewell posed as a Canadian to improve his chances of being hired. He signed on as an “able seaman.”
The expedition was a failure, but the story of how all 28 men made it back to “civilization” has become legendary.
Bakewell later returned to Illinois, where he lived and worked for more than two decades before moving to a farm in Michigan.
Bakewell’s service as a member of Shackleton’s party was commemorated by the naming of Bakewell Island, off the coast of Antarctica.

Jack in Chatham: “Sally” Turner is a Republican from Lincoln. Lesko is challenging “Doris” Turner.
