Why, we went to Lowe's for the 900th time since we've been here! I HATE Lowe's!!! Not really - I just get tired of being there all the time!! Since it was raining this morning, it rained out shuffleboard. So, Bob, Ann, Dave and I went to Lowe's. Then we went to Michaels and to Ross'. By the time we got through with those 3 stores, it was lunchtime, so we went to Pete & Shorty's on Gulf to Bay. Pete & Shorty's is a bar/restaurant in Clarksville, Iowa. The one down here (1,368 miles southwest of the original) started after the guys who started the Hooters chain decided to start a P&S too. The Hooters chain was started by two guys (among others) from Waverly, Iowa. The original Hooters is next door to the Pete & Shorty's we went to today. I had a Loose Meat Pete which is sort of like a Maid-Rite and fries. It was pretty good! The other three had the Friday special - fried fish & fries (plus cole slaw). The fish special was a mild white fish which reminded me of Long John Silvers fish. I think Ann said it was pollock. It was fish that even I could eat!
This afternoon I made a chipped beef dip for happy hour. There were about 26 of us at happy hour - good crowd. Everyone brings things to snack on for happy hour, so there's no need to have supper! Tonight we've just been hangin' out! More later...
