Saturday evening, July 25

This meal was to celebrate Roy’s birthday

Lydia got to celebrate with us because she was going to spend the next week and a half with Roy and Deb.

Tobacco leaf chairs – because John J. Jeffries Restaurant is part of a large complex that used to be a tobacco warehouse when Cerwin and I were young.

These are in the lounge area where we waited until the hostess came for us.

The birthday boy.

Stairs to the motel rooms.

Pretty rose arrangements.

Real roses.

After we ordered, Lydia gave Roy a few fun gifts.

This is a tiny moose that will “grow” after it is put in water. 🙂

I enjoy the French press coffee this restaurant serves.

We each got an “on-the-house” appetizer.

It was a delicious, cold, squash soup.

I forget who got which entrée.

I do know that this was my meal. I ate light because I wanted dessert. 🙂
