Okay, it’s Saturday night…whoops, there’s a knock on the door…
John Travolta, no, it’s not that Saturday night and we don’t have a fever, so just dance the night away somewhere else!
Let’s try this again!
There he is, Scott Turley! The MBIP Wheelman has shown up for the first road trip of 2026!
Just like Canned Heat, we’re on the road again! Scott’s a little fuzzy, but I’m sure he’ll straighten himself out as the night progresses!
And just like that, boom, here we are at the American Legion Post 318 in Morton, Illinois!
Let’s go in and start this week’s Saturday night adventure!
There’s the entrance to the bar and check it out, it’s almost a full bar in here!
Luckily there’s two seats at the end for Scott and myself to settle into!
As we take a seat, I see a familiar face behind the bar…
It’s my friend, Lisa who bartends here and we ran into her last week at Rhythm Kitchen! She’s looking great and is armed with a can of Budweiser which I always love to see!
There’s Scott taking his first Turley sip…stay tuned for the ucpsoming Turley Bite!
Lisa brought us over some Bugles and chips and dip for appetizers and Scott and I brought a tray of sandwiches for everyone!
Saturday night has officially begun!
There’s the two beers on tap and check out the welcome sign behind the bar! Nice!
There’s tables opposite the bar, a state of the art jukebox and gaming machines line the wall at the end of the bar.
Gus and Matt are regulars here and they’re also musicians in the band, White Taco & The Piledrivers. Jessica is a part time bartender here and Tom is the bar manager. Great to meet all of these friendly people!
Meanwhile, back at the bar…
Lisa served us up some of her homemade mac and cheese that she prepared for the evening. It was a rich and creamy treat, thanks Lisa!
There’s that Turley bite I promised earlier!
Thanks to Scott for driving and thanks to Lisa and everyone at the American Legion 318 Bar for a fun evening in Morton, Illinois!
