Opened about a year ago, and tonight was the first time to try it. It's a Steak house, they also do BBQ and Seafood. Thought we'd give it a try.



Tuesday night is Burger night..no other menu! They offer Buffalo, Elk, Beef, Veggie, Salmon, Tuna, and Mushroom Burgers. All the additions you want, at no extra cost. And, the make their own potato chips and the fries are fresh cut every day.



I had a half pound beef, with a fried egg, bacon, jack cheese, and jalapeno peppers. I was too full to get any more fresh fries..this picture shows only about a 3rd of the serving. It was a pretty good burger.


Pat had buffalo, Kay is a widow friend of ours, I don't know what she had, but it looked big..K & P shared a buffalo I think, with the large home made chips. I'd go back to this place, but only on a night they had a regular menu.



Angie Acord. Age 17, graduation from United States Coast Guard Boot Camp. This was 1988.



In our kitchen, Senior in High School. Probably 1987



Angie, the athlete. She was active in Tennis and Track, until she fell off her bike and hurt her knee.



Congratulations, you're in the Coast Guard. On board the USCGC Citrus, moored at the dock in Coos Bay. This was 1988.



"................to support and defend the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and domestic................." Sherm swearing in his daughter Angie. This is on her 17th Birthday. She left that afternoon for Cape May, New Jersey to attend Coast Guard Boot Camp. I had been the Engineer on this ship for 3 years, then went to Oklahoma for 5 years, and came back to Coos Bay for a different job at the Coast Guard Group Office. I asked the Commanding Officer of the Citrus if I could use his deck for a few minutes to swear in my daughter. Of course he thought it was a good idea, mustered the crew and called the local newspaper and TV crews. If all the paperwork is completed, any commissioned officer can conduct the "swearing in" ceremony. I sort of wanted to do it myself. 1988.



Angie in the garage, on Pat's Sportster.



Sherm in another life.



And yet another life.



Angie, with the weirdest hair doo she ever had! :-)
