Yesterday afternoon I met up with Jeannie and Bill at Shenanigans for
cocktails. Dawn, the bartendress is such fun and she was happy to see me! Our
dear friend from the Elks, Willie, was there too! Sure good to see him.
This one gentleman, also an Elk, was there...Curt, and he was buying all of
our drinks! Nice man. But, no, don't get any ideas! The music was raging and
made you want to dance......I have pictures, but not for publication. Jeannie
and Cathy were rockin' out!!! Shenanigans is a very friendly place and will go
back.
Dude is so funny.... now when I go away and leave he and Maggie in the
house...he gets one of my slippers and brings it out to the living room. I guess
he lays by it... has my scent, so he can remember his 'mom'!!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.
