I certainly am interested, for at least Thurs & Fri nights.

No other responses yet, but this is still what I'm thinking of for tonight.


On Thursday, Blues singer & guitarist extraordinaire Carolyn Wonderland has an early gig (show@8) at Flamingo Cantina. For anyone skipping the Perry's dinner, this could be a good way to start off the evening. It's walking distance to the Gingerman where the group is gathering later in the evening.

LOL. :D

Man, that was good!

Everything's good so far. Fewer people made it to Magnolia Cafe than expected, but we had a nice breakfast anyway. Amy's started out slow, but picked up towards the end, especially when the ice cream samples were handed out. :cool:

But, the best thus far was Franklin BBQ, which did not disappoint. :)

At the Aloft now and will be registering folks between 3 PM and 5 PM.

Wow, how did I manage to miss you?! I arrived just in time to reap the benefit of a friend putting in the wait time. ^
Even managed to get extra brisket for a 'midnight snack'. :D

I can still hardly move - except to go to the fridge and fix my dinner of ribs and briskie! I have truly reached NIRVANA!

Sorry I did not stay to visit with everyone in line - I desperately needed to get back and check the market, do chores, walk the dogs, or was it too take a nap? :D But then I do need to rise early for the donut run ...

My goal is to be #1 in line next visit to Franklins.

Uhoh, how did that pulled pork sandwich get in my fridge?

Hi - I thought I'd be hooked up with you by now or at least
at the Ginger Man, but I have this enormous toothache -
hope to join you tomorrow morning but may not eat:mad:

That's ok... I'm sure we made up for the difference today :o

Hope your tooth feels better soon.
