Eat, Drink And Be Merry!

    Saturday the weather wasn't great, but it was passable. A little on the cloudy side but at least it was dry. woke up a bit before 10 am, had a guick shower and headed for this restaurant that Herb said was a great place ro have breakfast. As 1 srood inside the door looking the place over, 1 heard my n缸口e being ca11ed out. 1 looked and over in the corner sat Bobby with a cup of coffee waiting for his order. 1 went and sat down and the waitress came and rook my order and scurried off. Bobby was a soft spoken man, tall and 1anky, but not too thin. We made small ta1k. H e had driven up from Alabama and was happy with the truck he had recently come into possession of. The model escapes me but he had gotten it with 10w mileage at a real good price. He pointed it out to me. "Hey Bobby" 1 said, "the saucer is yellow!" Saucecer,It comes from a running joke in the chatroo111. Bobby is refer1'ed to as the alien from another planet. Ah, 1 thought you had lostyour mind. Not completely,are you sure the endorphin levels are where they should be? Oops, I gotta go see you later. Bobby chuckled when 1 to1d him 1 cou1d tell folks I've seen the saucer and it looks like a banana. We finished breakfast and when 1 went ro grab the check, Bobby snatched it up. 1 protested. "Give me that." 1 said. ''Not this time.it was Bobbγs rep1y. "See you later at Herb's." i suppose on the next road trip we've going to  drive thourgh Alabama so you can buy Bobby dinner.
Are you reading my mind again? Well from in here 1 can't help it,it's right there in front of me.
    After breakfast 1 went back to the mote1 and channel surfed the tv for awhile, then it was time to head up to Herb and Lacey、Everyone from the night before was already there, and a few others would show up later. Herb was getting ready ro barbegue a few clllinary delights. Lacey had made a couple different kinds of salad, and there were assorted beverages on hand. Herb brought out some app1e flavored moonshine. 1 rarely drink, but 1 decided to take a swig in honor of the occasion . HOLY COW!! This stuff had more than a little kick, it was more like a wallop with a baseball bat. 1 fould it a little difficlùt to breathe for' a few seconds. You could have put that stuff in the gas tank. Yeah ,and it probably contained more octane than the gas. After my bodily functions returned to a somewhat normal state it was time to chow down. When everyone was full we started the regular party routime ,music, etc. One of Herb's neighbors
even brought a g山tar and entertained us for awhile. AlI in a11 it was a great part.And even though it was only the first year wedding annive1sary , Herb and Lacey had already been together for a few years, which goes to show that relationships that begin online, contrary to some of the people that say they never last, actually can end up working out for the good.
