My grandfather worked until him 65th birthday and died approximately 6 months later. That sucks!

Too many stories like that. I had four close car buddies die in 2021. Two were older and two were younger. The best I can say is they really, all four, enjoyed their cars and their time here. God Bless.

I had pasta with meatballs and sausage. Should have asked for less cheese on top. I prefer more tomato, less cheese in pasta dishes. Rick had pasta Bolognese. Meals were fine, price in the $22.00 range which is about the norm. Prices are up everywhere. Servings were overly generous. Both of us have enough for another meal.

We have a local Italian restaurant that we enjoy more.

I'm guessing those specials were priced that way due to Valentines Day. I have never seen lobster at that price and the side dish of mashed potatoes? ICK! The surf and turf was way too pricey as well. Wonder how much of those dishes they will sell.

The restaurant had a varied menu with pizza and calzones as well.
