Part 1- Harry Caray’s.
“Bad news,” my mom texts me as I’m riding in my uber to join the rest of my family at Midway Airport last week, en route to our vacay in North Carolina.
Oh shit, I think. Jade’s appendix burst again? Knox threw up in the middle of Midway (he’s done this.) Lola forgot her Polly Pockets. What could it be?
“Harry Caray’s is closed! Dad is pissed. It’s now a White Sox bar,” my mom texts again.
My parents LOVE Midway Harry Caray’s. Who doesn’t though, to be honest.
“So where are you waiting then?” I text back.
“Harry Caray’s.”
“But I thought?”
“The new one. Not called Harry Caray’s. White Sox Inn? We ordered you a Bloody. “
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the Wolfe family vacation 2017.
A mere twenty minutes later, I zoom through security and join my parents in Not Harry Caray’s.
“Can you believe this?!” My dad says when I first walk in and find them sitting at the back table. “There’s not even photos on the wall anymore. Not one!”
“Why would they do this?” My mom chimes in.
“And to think we were just here last week and everything seemed completely normal,” my dad says as if he’s reminiscing about an old friend, rather than an airport restaurant/bar.
One in the same, I suppose.
My sister sits between Knox and Lola, reminding Knox his screen time will be limited. He’s not happy about this. Lola is playing Polly Pockets.
The bloodys at Not Harry Caray’s are $17. The server sets them down just as I walk in and they appear to be only tomato juice and vodka. Not a single garnish. This won’t go over well.
“We’re out of pickles, celery, and olives,” the server says, sensing our disappointment with the meager $17 bland beverage, “so the bloodys will only be $8 today.”
She asks if we want food and my mom says, “just an order of fried pickles.”
“We’re out of those too.”
So we don’t order any food.
The server walks away and my dad says, “This would have never happened at Harry Caray’s.”
We all can’t help but nod in agreement.
Little do we know Harry Caray’s is just the tip of the iceberg. When we walk further into the airport we’ll see that Potbelly is gone, as well. If Nuts On Clark has been kicked out and my mom can’t get her airport popcorn the trip will be called off right then and there.
Luckily, Nuts On Clark has survived the restaurant exodus at Midway. For NOW!
Family vacay can go on.
Part II- “This Place Reminds Me of Cape Fear, the movie.”
It was a two hour flight to Raleigh, in which Harry Caray’s is discussed for the majority of it, as well as our speculation as to which restaurants will go next and have all new employees been brought in?
“I’ve bought popcorn from the same nice woman at Clarks for years. YEARS! And she’s no longer there,” my mom insists. “It’s a shame.”
“Maybe today’s her day I off?” I suggest.
“Nope. No way. She’s gone.”
“And I bet they’re paying the new employees a lot less,” my dad adds. “I just can’t believe Harry Caray’s is gone.”
We all agree.
After a quick stop in Raleigh to see my brother’s new home, we make the two hour trek to Wilmington. Upon entering the scenic coastal town we begin seeing billboards about “Cape Fear Seafood” and “Cape Fear Banking” and “Cape Fear blah blah blah.”
“Oh Cape Fear! What a good movie!” My sister says.
“Yes! So good!” My mom responds.
“I don’t think I’ve seen that one, but I’ve heard of it,” I say, wishing I’d seen it, knowing the numerous discussions that are about to ensue.
“With Robert De Niro!”
“And he comes after the daughter.”
“Nope, I haven’t seen it,” I say to my mom and sister, who are both in total shock I haven’t seen this 90s thriller.
We get to our house near Wrightswood Beach and it’s gorgeous. It’s exactly what I’d imagine a North Carolina home near the water would look like. My dad, who rode in my brother’s car, gets out of the car and immediately says, “This place is exactly like Cape Fear! The movie!”
“I haven’t seen it.”
“With Robert De Niro! And the daughter! You sure?”
“Yup,” I say, once again to everyone’s disappointment.
“You gotta watch it. It’s so good.”
Our home on the inside is even cuter than the outside.
When we arrive it’s pretty grey and rainy, so we decide to go and get groceries as everyone is supposed to make dinner for the house one night.
The storm moves in just as my parents are making the dinner they chose for the evening and the kitchen lights start to flicker.
“Oh yeah, this is just like Cape Fear. The movie,” my dad says excitedly.
We all agree.
Part III- The Tide Really DOES Change!
coming soon.
I love your characteristic family!

Ha, love the dialogue. Sounds like something I'd hear with my family, for sure. That house looks gorgeous! I'd love to do something like that with a big group of friends one day. Can't wait to hear more about the trip!
Hello,
I Read the article of a very great spell caster and it seems very helpful
to me. I haven’t had the chance to have a proper relationship with my ex
because we work together. This will be the final week or work and then I
wont be around him constantly. Unfortunately, I broke one of the rules in
the article and have been sleeping with him. Something I’m not proud of,
especially since he has a girlfriend. Not to mention that she’s a girl he
dated off and on for 3 years before he dated me.
When I asked him why he kept sleeping with me even though he was in a
relationship, his response was because I wanted it, and he wantve him all to
myself. That was when i read about Dr alexzander on how he help people in
saving their relationship and i was really desperate for his help. There
were things in our relationship that were tough. We traveled for 4 months
right in the beginning, and it was hard due to different expectations. When
we returned our living situation was unstable which caused a lot of stress
on my end. And when I ask why he didn’t give me a chance to make things
better he said he gave me tons of chances. Oh, and he compared our
relationship with his past. He says that things were great, and then they
went bad really fast, and that why his back with is Ex. Because it at least
took them years for things to get that bad. So i was very sad and
disappointing and decided to contact this spell caster for help with tears
running out of my eyes and Dr alexzander promised to make things right in
my relationship and also assured me that my boyfriend is going to come back
to me within 78hrs. At first i was shock and didn't believe him because i
thought it was impossible to do. But i gave it a try and trusted him. Dr
alexzander asked for my details and his, then guarantee me of his return.
Truly my ex lover started calling me and also begging me to forgive him and
that's his willing to give us a second chance, then promised me never to
love any other woman apart from me. it all seem like a miracle to me till
now. Dr alexzander. Words can't express how i feel right now. it been 2
month now since you caste that love spell for me and nothing have gone bad
between us. his now caring more than ever and also the loving kind of Man i
have ever wanted for myself in life. I thank you Dr alexzander for saving
my relationship. Indeed you are the best. I want to use this media to share
my testimony for the whole world to see and know that there is still hope
in your broken relationship, No matter how bad it seems don't give up hope
and also contact this man who saved my own. you can reach him through his
website address http://alexzanderhightemple-com.webs.com or contact him
direct with his email address [email protected]. I thank you
Dr alexzander for helping me and i will always share my testimony in every
social media or place i may go to.

Hi Everyone,
I'm from United Kingdom London, City(GB). I met this spell caster called Dr IyaryI of [email protected] online and so many other, but i decided to go with this particular spell caster and this is about 2 weeks ago.I needed the spell caster to reunite me and my lover because she started behaving strange and a day came she text me and told me she cannot continue with the relationship anymore, that she just want to be alone.But a close friend of hers shows the guy to me that she was now dating.So i contacted this spell caster because i was totally heart broken and i smoked and get drunk till i could not even notice if am standing or lying.This spell caster told me not to worry, he gave me hope that am to have her again just like old times, and i provided all the requirements, and in just 5 days, my ex lover called me crying over the phone asking for me to forgive her for her stupid act, and she swore with her mother grave to love me and never hurt me again.This was what the spell caster earlier told me and it came after he has done the spell and that same night, my lover came back to the house to me. I have never seen spell as powerful as this but now, am convinced that Dr IyaryI is the best ever, You can contact him through him email address: [email protected] or [email protected] or And also Reach him on WhatsApp Number: +2349057915709 Thanks Dr. IyaryI
