What is CapitalCityMenus.com?
Have you ever wanted to try a new restaurant but weren’t quite sure what they had. Or maybe you’re tired of ordering the same old thing week after week and you want to see what else is out there.

At CapitalCityMenus.com we ease this dilemma by posting online menus for all the great restaurants in and around the Capital City. We look forward to serving the Springfield community and we hope you enjoy our efforts.

 

Who created CapitalCityMenus.com?
CapitalCityMenus.com was created in 2009 by a couple of average Joe’s Like most others, this site was started out of necessity. We needed a better way of keeping track of all the menus we accumulated over the years of eating out. We figured the best thing to do was to create a website and share our efforts with everyone. This is how CapitalCityMenus.com was born

Take a look at what they have at http://www.capitalcitymenus.com

Are you a blogger in Springfield? Chances are you are listed in a blog directory for all Springfield IL bloggers. http://www.spfldbloggers.com/ has been up and running thanks to After Hours Development. The website itself is an RSS feed of all the blogs that are related to Springfield. If a blog posts something new, it shows up on the site. Its a great directory of blogs that are around springfield. If you want your blog added to their database, send them an email and they should get back to you and add you.

For this reason, I have added spfldbloggers to our website links.

In a move to get people to try the site out without any risks we have opened up the general forum section to non registered users. In order to post in the general forums, all you have to have is a username (anything will do) and a valid email. Feel free to start a poll and question the citizens of Springfield.

Our First Snow

I hope you have new tires on your car! We had our first real snow this weekend and boy was it slippery. I had the privilage of driving in it last Saturday and Sunday. I drove in a 4×4 this year. It made a huge difference!

Just drive safe. Remember to start out slow and slow down farther down the road than you would usually.

If you get stuck in snow you can always try some sand or cat litter behind the tire that spins. If you can, dig your tires a path before you try and leave.

A reader had added: “When driving a rear wheel drive vehicle. If you get stuck and one wheel spins, you can try applying the parking brake slightly, only slightly, this fools the rear end gears into sending torque to the other side of the car and may get you moving again. Don’t forget to release the brake once you are moving again. Good tip if you can’t find sand or cat litter.
