Sixteen years ago on March 12, 2010 I went to a Belgian bar on Fourth Street called Vol de Nuit. I met a lot of people that I’ve never seen again. This was my 62nd night of this 365 tour. tinyurl.com/4n76k4n7 #NYC
Yeah, that bar was called The Sports Page! It was a secondary stop after the Tip Top!
Our 60th stop on this 365 bars tour of Peoria and beyond takes us to a classic Peoria bar: Whitey’s Tip Top Inn. Lot’s of us had our first bar drink in this tavern, including me! tinyurl.com/eahnfsk8 #MBIP #Peoria #365Bars

The tacos were so good!
Very cool! Yeah it was a fun place. That's the great thing about this tour, you never know what you're walking into!
I stopped in at the Brass Key Lounge in East Peoria for our 59th stop of our 365 bar tour! They have tributes to East Peoria legends in there including Gary Richrath who was known to stop in and hang out there when he returned to East Peoria. tinyurl.com/mvy6w4ur #MBIP #EastPeoria #365Bars

I had dinner last Sunday at the bar in Blue Margaritas and it was a delicious dinner with a tasty large margarita! tinyurl.com/3swkjcb6 #Peoria #MBIP #365Bars

Last Saturday I went to Jack’s Pizza Tavern in Bartonville with my friends Moon and Chris and we had a spectacular evening hanging out with the owner of the establishment, Jack Berres. We had a delicious dinner and fun at the bar afterwards. tinyurl.com/nh9hzpcp #MBIP #Peoria #365Bars

I haven’t been to the bar at the Pere Marquette Hotel since the summer of 2014, so I was overdue for a visit. And that’s why I went there for the 55th night of our 365 bar tour. shorturl.at/VqyCG #MBIP #Peoria #365Bars
