We found a spot safely away from the crowds. The music was well played by older people - at least our age! HA! Michael said it looked like the commercial where the grandfather takes the guitar from his granddaughter. But, I have to tell you, they were good. Then, a blues guy took over and got the place rockin'!
My hero Michael battled the lines for hearty appetizers and we ate well including fresh Dungeness crab on bread, crab cakes, large shrimp, scallops wrapped in bacon, lamb chops, salmon rolls, spanakopita, dolmades, potato half stuffed with sour cream, beef wellington, asparagus wrapped in phyllo and goat cheese, baklava and chocolate covered strawberries. I ate all the seafood! And a lamb chop. It was wonderful.Years ago, we knew a crazy family who owned a tire store in this town. When we first saw the TV show American Chopper, Michael said it reminded him of this family and this business. Parents and sons and daughters all fighting and working together. Last night, the son who really was the primary worker now owns it and was at the party as part of the Chamber of Commence presentation. Michael couldn't believe it was him. It has been well over 30 years since he had seen him last. Well, he immediately recognized Michael and we must have talked for over an hour. We never mentioned that I am sick. It seems that it was not the time or place. Just before we left, we ran into other friends who are also going to the wedding on Saturday. Another party.
This restaurant was RIGHT on the ocean. Our car got wet from the spray as there was nothing between it and the water other than a few rocks. We watched the sun set over the ocean then drove home down the coast. Nice night.
