Nice Folks, Social
6 Comments Fun At the Saloon
This evening, R, S, L, Caroline, her husband J, and myself headed out to play some shuffleboard at the Saltwater Saloon. It was so cool to be hanging out with Caroline tonight; she’s one of my most longtime blog readers! Caroline, a little more twist and a little less shove next time.
I was surprised to have a pretty good chicken burger from the grill attached to the saloon. It’s really nice to have the full service convenience store, gas pumps, grill, and saloon just a mile or so from the beach. It’s close enough to get out without too much effort, but not within walking distance as to encourage frequent consumption of three beers on a weeknight.
This weekend, there is talk of heading down to the marina at Indianola. No shuffleboard there, but lots of fishing to watch.
I’m fairly certain that my social calendar hasn’t been full since my first Klondike summer!
It was a lot of fun. I got a bit better practicing by myself then played S and lost big time. Still had a lot of fun as hubby and I had never been to a bar together before tonight.
I have not played shuffleboard since… let’s see… Wow! Probably the mid 80′s in the bar at the Massett Inn in Massett, BC which was then on the Queen Charlotte Islands but is now on Haida Gwaii.
I have curled a lot since then si I could still do it.
It was another good time on the beach at the Saloon. This is truely a majical place. Can I tag along to the fishing pier?
Silly man, you don’t have to ask.
It won’t be fun without you!
This is shuffleboard on a table, not the floor. It is reminiscent of curling, though.
Caroline, this is what RVing is all about: new experiences!
