Got turned on to a new to me burger joint today. We'll make it a destination next time we're all in the mood for burger or dog.

I'm planning on being there tonight. But it won't be in Ka'Bluey, with tires finally giving up due to the bad cracks. I put the spare on the left front that went out last weekend, and it's bald.

Wow that was a good dinner, and of course, great company. I could have done without a couple of scares, between the train and that hella timer thing that John had.

Well the food was great and I certainly cannot complain about portion size after THIS happened to me later in the night:

Food did not disappoint last night. Conversation interesting as usual.

Pretty cool we can get six folks to meet in Hillsborough and share food and stories.

Too bad John got us kicked out at the end. We were leaving anyway.

WP, I don't know if you noticed the po po that did the u-turn in town and got right up on me all the way to the dollar general. I didn't know what I did but I was getting my registration out and preparing to be boarded. He never hit the lights.

I heard there was going to be a major going away party at Bob's.

Bob, I'm sure it was just the straw that broke the camels back (or the forkful that broke the belt buckle)!
James I think you and me passed each other about 4 times between Hillsborough and exit 312.
