Little Bohemia Day-Part 3



Welcome back...last day of our tour of Little Bohemia.
This is a sign just inside the restaurant doors.




They have a display of a few Dillinger items...
not much there
right now, as most of it is still
out on loan to Public Enemies.





Above, it a empty shell, and a bullet-ridden tin can
used for practice.




This is the back of the restaurant...you can see people
inside enjoying their delicious dinners and the evening
sunset across the lake.





This is a view from the boat landing (behind my back).
I loved the LUNCH sign.





This is the lake frontage that Dillinger used for
his escape. "He ran that way!"





Thanks for coming on the tour.
Next up... Al Capone's Hideout.


Happy 4th everyone!! Cheers!

Great pictures, thanks for sharing!

Happy 4th to you too.

Lotus said...

Great pictures, Sir Jack! Can't wait for The Hideout pics. You may have missed your calling as a tour guide!

Lotus said...

This is so strange. I went to Minxie's blog and could not get in!!! (?She doesn't like me anyomore?) I hope the fires out in CA have not shut down the internet for some reason! Anyone else have this problem?

Lotus said...

Never mind. I finally broke into Minxie's blog. YOU CAN'T KEEP ME OUT, MINXIE!!!! (insert evil laugh here)

Hi Cranky & Sir, happy July 4th! Cranky, did you get some sleep last night!?!

shakenbsis said...

Thanks for the tour wrap, very nice! Minxie's wan't open yet Lotus? I was jsut heading that way, glad you took care of it! LOL

Lotus said...

P.S. Sir Jack, did you get your Sweeney Todd pics that I emailed? And additional vacation pics. Just wondering.

HI SHAKES!!! (waves & jumps up & down for attention)

Lotus said...

Tee hee! Sir, did you notice on the old Little Bohemia sign that they served DUCK!!! I wonder if it had plum sauce. Hummmmmm.

shakenbsis said...

Hi Lotus!
*leans out window, aims North and waves back!*

Working Slob said...

Sir Jack,

I love your vacation pictures!! They are awesome. Did you take any in Hayward and Bayfield? Or must I be a patient little poppet and wait ?

Happy 4th Sir Jack of the Seas...

Judge :)

Lotus said...

Hey, Jack, is that a picture of YOU standing on the dock at sunset? Inquiring minds...

calypso said...

Lotus said...

Yes, Jack, I love your new look! You are so...menacing!

"No comment, hey?" IT IS YOU! Calypso, I've contacted my former friends at NSA and they are inspecting the photo in question as we blog! Sir Jack's REAL idenity should SOON be known by more than his inner-most circle. ;)

~Minxie~ said...

OH Jack is on the dock? hmmmm..... very interesting indeed!!!

lotus, I've got my "sources" on it as well...... lets see what they have to say about it!

Lotus said...

Go get 'em, Minxie!

shakenbsis said...

Hmmm....
That's two former NSA'ers and Minxie's 'sources', we should have this mystery unravelled in no time!

Hope you all are out doing fun family stuff today, I worked till jsut now, grrr... Now I have to cook for our trip to Black River Falls tomorrow, double grrr....

Have a great weekend!

Lotus said...

Hey, Shakes! Sorry you had to work today. But TGIF!!!! Yep, with all three of us on the case Sir Jack doesn't stand a chance! (We'll ignore the fact that us 3 have been on the case for a while already, with no success. SSshhh.)

Be careful driving Auntie to Black River Falls. But what a beautiful place to drive to!

Lotus said...

SHAKES!!!! HELLO!!! SHAKES!!!!! Shakes, go back to Minxie's blog if you haven't already read it! Go Girl Go!

Movie Star Wife said...

Happy 4th of July, Sir Jack!
Just stopping in for a moment. And now I'm gone. . .

-Sir Jack said...

NSA...means Not Saying Anything.
I can tell you something though...

Lotus said...

What, Jack, what? Tell us something! How was your night?

-Sir Jack said...

Let's see...today I saw some ducks, some decorated bicycles, fish, chain racing, gaunlet racing...

So, you didn't answer my questions...how many G&Ts?

Lotus said...

"So, you didn't answer my questions...how many G&Ts?" Huh? Did you ask me a question, Sir?

-Sir Jack said...

Yes, on Calypso's blog...you're flying high tonight love?

Lotus said...

Sorry, let me go to Calypso's blog! I am NOT flying high!

Lotus said...

OK, I answered you Sir! I'm running through three blogs tonight! That's a lot for an old witch like me!

-Sir Jack said...

I think you're younger under that witches costume...love.

Lotus said...

Not by much!

Lotus said...

Actually, tech speaking, I am older than that witch's costume. I was born before the movie. Geez, where's my coffin?

-Sir Jack said...

Like it better here Lotus? Not sure if there are as many lurkers...?

-Sir Jack said...

LMFAO Lotus!!

Lotus said...

Yea, Jack, I like your place better! Fewer eyes are watching. Or are they?

-Sir Jack said...

I'm pretty sure hardly anyone...according to my map!

shakenbsis said...

nobody importane... just me...

shakenbsis said...

ooohh you've changed agian!

-Sir Jack said...

Mmm yes!

Lotus said...

OK, Sir, you have the BEST pictures! Where did you get this one? Reminds me of the rum on the beach shot...

Why don't pirates drink beer on the beach? They don't want to get sand in their Schlitz. :D

-Sir Jack said...

blllssspppt. Lotus, you made me spit my rum out...oh well, there's more where that came from!
*swigs & grins*

Blaznfire911 said...

LOL yes it deos a bit, but that's what sailing the high seas is all about!!

Blaznfire911 said...

LOL Jack! I am lurking a bit.

Lotus said...

OK, Sir, here's my question for tonight (but just on this blog)...is Calypso your (how shall I say this so you don't wiggle around the question, hummm?) girlfriend? YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!?!

-Sir Jack said...

*sings* I'm going to a secret place with stories!!

And I'm taking me rum too...

Blaznfire911 said...

LMAO Jack!

It's a magical place LOL

I made it to share things with people that are funny, cheesy, and personal. :)

-Sir Jack said...

What? Are you saying I'm cheesy? Funny? Personal? Eh, okay.

I'm skipping over to vixen's...maybe my lips will be looser over there...

Blaznfire911 said...

LMAO! Cheesy in a good way

Lotus said...

Oooo, loose lips! I'll meet you at Blazn's!

Blaznfire911 said...

I think Jack is wiggling away from your question Lotus

Blaznfire911 said...

LMAO Lotus! I was just thinking the same thing

Lotus said...

Blazn, you really are a tart! And I should know!

Osh said...

so weird Jack...the Lunch picture is one of six from Little Bo that I can't get off my memory card as well as another picture I took of the escape route and a couple of bullit hole shots of the balcony side...it was the Dillinger Effect.

Lotus said...

Hey, Osh, we were just hanging out. Did you have a good 4th? And how was Little Bo? What did you eat?

-Sir Jack said...

Hi Oshy...if you're still lurking...

Lotus did you sail over?

Lotus said...

Osh, did you take a picture of a strange man on the dock at sunset? =;D

Lotus said...

I'm here Jack, I don't know if Osh is still around. Can't find her and I've looked behind ALL of your rum barrels!

-Sir Jack said...

Oh God..my rum barrels...they're so dusty!!

-Sir Jack said...

Lotus, my love, you're so intriguing.
I don't know why?

Osh said...

I might have taken a picture of a strange man at sunset...

I know a lot of strange men...

I ordered the ribeye...

we had so much food...although the pea and peanut salad was odd.

-Sir Jack said...

Ohsy, the pea and peanut salad was sort of oniony...didn't you think? Yet I still liked it...it was unusual.

Lotus said...

Probably because you've been drinking rum and you have less human contact than even I do! Not that humans are anything special...I generally like animals better! :D

-Sir Jack said...

Lotus, aren't we all part animal is some way??

Lotus said...

Hey, Osh, you found us!!! Yea! Rib eye...mmmuuummm!

Lotus said...

I know I am!! But you don't like cougars, so I don't know...

-Sir Jack said...

so you think of yourself as part cougar do you? I thought you'd choose something more green and unsocial...?

Lotus said...

Hey Jack, Minxie's is the rum blog...your's can be the G&T blog! Osh likes G&T's also.

-Sir Jack said...

Ahh, more rum, more rum...

Osh said...

yes, oniony...I couldn't decide if I liked it or not, although I had about 8 bites!

Tomorrow another day on the beach...I finished Pretty Boy Floyd today by Larry Mcmurtry...very good fictionalized version of his life...2 thumbs up...tomorrow I will just have trashy magazines to read. I could live up here forever...there are about 6 houses in the subdivision that my friends live in that we would buy in a heartbeat if we could...walking up every morning to deer in the yard and eagles in trees and soaring above is my idea of heaven.

-Sir Jack said...

Rum blog...wtf...a rum blog?
*gasp* Rum!! Blog!!
Nyce.

Lotus said...

Cougars are pretty unsocial. I don't know of anything that is green and unsocial, in the animal world that is. Even fungi are communal!

Osh said...

waking up, not walking up

-Sir Jack said...

Oshy, it is a beautiful area!! How's the real estate for pricing compared to Oshkosh love?

Osh said...

hey Jack...the signs you found in the garage at Little bo were used on their float...

Lotus said...

Osh, are you in the woods of Lake Tomohawk? I think I saw that on blog. It is very nice there! Have you gone to the Windmill for icecream? You HAVE to do that while you are there!

-Sir Jack said...

fungi are communal? Alright, elaborate on that my love!!!!

Lotus said...

"fungi are communal?" I'm not real good at biology, but they do hang out together!

-Sir Jack said...

You know I saw your blog with the Little Bo pix...very nice. I was surprised about that sign! I'm glad you got that for your blog!
Looks like you had a great time!!
Did Evan like it?

-Sir Jack said...

What a stretch Lotus...you!!! Communal, hang out together...hey that's what we are, aren't we love?

Lotus said...

Osh, do you REALLY know a lot of strange me?

-Sir Jack said...

LMFAO, strange me? Lotus...too much sherry my love!?

Osh said...

let me try to find the house Jack

Lotus said...

Yes, Jack, we ARE communal! We do hang out together! We could all move up north and hang out together! Online. :D

-Sir Jack said...

Oshybgoshy! Where else will you be going while you're up in Eaglesville?

(we saw an eagle eating roadkill, TFF)

Lotus said...

Hey, Jack, you just beat Minxie's blog posts! Woo hoo!

-Sir Jack said...

You know, I really liked Vixen's storyville apartment...I think I'll make a nice place like that and invite others over. Maybe tomorrow?
It could be called Sir Jack's Island Hut...LMAO. I need another dirnk.
*pours*

-Sir Jack said...

So many hits? Hmmm?

-Sir Jack said...

Yeah or I could call it Sir Jack's Secret Cabin...

-Sir Jack said...

Or Sir Jack's Hideout...??

-Sir Jack said...

Or... Jack's Little Bo

Lotus said...

Sorry, I was off looking at Osh's pictures of Little BO! GREAT pics! Who told you about the actor looking for 'companionship'? Did they hook him up?

Osh said...

We are just hanging out here and then back to Oshkosh tomorrow night. Scott has to work Sunday night. Oh boo hoo for him!

Lotus said...

I vote for Jack's Secret Cabin! You could set it up in the Wisconsin Northwoods. Make sure you have plenty of rum and gin & tonic. Don't forget the limes & coconuts!

-Sir Jack said...

Yeah Oshy, who was that? I can delete it afterwards.

-Sir Jack said...

Lime in the Coconut! I love Harry Nilsson!!

Lotus said...

Yea, Osh, we won't tell anyone! Plus I'm sure the guy could have found any number of women willing to knock boots with him! Unfortunately, most of the women up there are short on teeth! But, hey, better to gum you with my dear!

-Sir Jack said...

Lotus, you never cease to dismay me!!
Teeth. You're funnier than an undead monkey!

-Sir Jack said...

I guess she's just lurking now...

SO Jack's Secret Cabin ehy?

Lotus said...

Well, Jack, I have to get to bed! You had better sleep off that hangover, too! It's been fun. See you again soon. Maybe we can meet in Sir Jack's Secret Cabin! (wink, wink)

Osh said...

-Sir Jack said...

So true Lotus, my hangover is lurking...I must go off to bed as well. Have a good rest!!! Tomorrow I'll try to build Jack's Secret Cabin!!

Lotus said...

That's what my brother used to say about the women up north! Big breasts and missing teeth! And those were the good ones. LOL! I can't really argue too much with it. :)

Osh said...

someone and his family stayed someplace else...the name escapes me, but I was told the family greatly enjoyed their time up here.

Osh said...

I'll be able to remember the name when I get home...it wasn't a private house, I don't think.

Lotus, I heard Alan Jackson and Mel Gibson have places up here too, is that right?

-Sir Jack said...

Nice house, Oshy!! Great price too.
Can hubby find work up there?

Lotus said...

So are you saying that some of the actor's actually stayed at Little Bohemia? Because we all know that is where the fire was.

Our neighbor up north works at a higher-end dining establishment in M.W. and he told my hubby that many of the film crew were rude and obnoxious. Asking for things not on the menue; things that would have had to have been special ordered way in advance! Then they were snotty when they were told those ingredients were not available!

-Sir Jack said...

Lotus said...

That's news to me, Osh. But I don't know everything! (Shut up, Sir Jack!) Actually, I have heard a lot of stars have had or have places around the Land O Lakes area. Nothing would surprise me!

So much for going to bed, huh, Jack? OK, I'm really gong now!

Osh said...

no, I was mistaken about hte fire location...I got confused for a minute

but your friend is correct....everything you said is what L. told my friend and was said to me...
It is a very high end resort...ugh the name escapes me!

-Sir Jack said...

Oshy feel free to trash the posts you want gone...

Lotus, my lovely Lotus, I'm too tired and wasted to pick a fight with you. LOL, LMFAO

G'nite love.

Lotus said...

I wasn't picking a fight Jack! I was merely pointing out the obvious, that neither of us went to bed like we said we were. It's all Osh's fault! :D

Lotus said...

REALLY, this time i'm gone!

Osh said...

In order for hubby to find work up here I would have to type up and submit his resume and go on the interviews for him.

He works as an imaging tech for a very large printing company with plants mostly in southeast Wisconsin...

I was actually offered a great teaching job here last year with state benefits, but it just didn't work out that Scott could handle being Mr Mom.

-Sir Jack said...

G'nite Oshy. Sorry you had to see that. She gets witchy when she's tired...we still love her anyway.

Thanks for sharing some of your tidbits...would you like to be invited to Sir Jack's Secret place when it becomes available?

Osh said...

like all the posts? lol

Osh said...

of course, I love secret places! Please!

-Sir Jack said...

Oshy-you might be surprised...they might have Imaging jobs around up there...does he want to move up there? Or is he just being a butthead about finding work?

-Sir Jack said...

Well, if you want to...all the posts sweetheart.

Osh said...

he could be a butthead!

jack, don't use my email on my blog to invite me...use that to email me for my real email, k?
thanks!

and then I will tell you the actor.

-Sir Jack said...

Oshy, Ok, I will email you when I get the secret blog up and running love.

My email is up now if you need it Oshy!

Lotus said...

Good morning! I'm lurking...in & out today. And Osh, can I know the actor's name also? Please! I would love to know some dirt!
