Where: Los Tres 1301 E Williams St. Apex
https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaura..._Carolina.html

Time: 6:15ish


Be there or be square. Don't forget to bring a sharpie. We need to sign Bob's truck. I'm bringing a rattle can of day-glo pink to sign my name down the side of his fender. Hopefully he won't mind.

There's a better Mexican place called Los Tres. It's just down the street from Skippers, and on the same side of 55/Williams. We like the food way better, and better seating.

I have to agree with Bob with this one...way better food and seating. The largest table downtown only seats 7 and they only have 2.

I drive for Puryear Trucking right there on E Williams, cement and LP gas tankers.


I know the dispatch guys have eaten at the restraint and we have had safety meetings at the hotel just behind it.



As said if not too tired I will try and stop by, I have a 45 min. ride home from there and don't want to end up on the news

I do understand not wanting to be on the news.
Hopefully we'll get to see you there for dinner.

Sounds good. I should be able to make it. Does anyone have a Chevy Red sharpie, so we can draw a Bow Tie on the dash.

The dash is already Red, and you don't want me to remember you the way that I will if that happened.

My Buddy/Neighborh drives for them also out of the Maysville one. I also know the guy that used to dispatch down here, but I'm pretty sure he moved to the Raleigh office.

If there's an different place y'all want to go that fine. I'll drive Ka'Bluey as long as it isn't downtown someplace, or an hour away.

Just got back from Redneck BBQ Lab, damn that was the best ribs I have had in a long long time. Sherry got the brisket and some smoked turkey, she said the turkey was great and that the brisket was the best she's had. She wants to get the burnt ends which are only available on Tuesdays but is afraid they'll be sold out by the time she gets home from work at 6pm! hahaha. Too bad this place could never be an FTE dinner meeting place, not enough seating for one, and two - whether or not they'll still have food at dinner time seems to be like a 50% probability at best. But as of right now my belly is full and happy

Regretfully, I won't be able to make this month either, I've had to change my work schedule half a dozen times due to my @#$^ ex-wife. Perhaps next month, y'all have fun.

Sorry you can't make it Matt. When it starts warming up we'll be making the rounds again. We'll try to put one in Raeford.


Josh, I have some chevy red spray paint we can just paint a big bow tie on the front of the hood. Bob won't mind. It will accent the pink fenders.

Los Tres. Feb 21st. Apex.
