We were looking forward to having dinner in a new restaurant, ever since Deb and Roy invited us to Logan’s Roadhouse – partway between our house and his.

It was a gift to Cerwin, whose birthday had been a week-and-a-half earlier.

The rolls were fabulous!  I had to use a lot of willpower to not eat a second one.  They were light, buttery, and warm.

There was a bucket of peanuts on our table, but we opted to not eat any.

Our youngest daughter Deb and her friend Roy.

Cerwin and I each had a delicious salad (no photo) a six-ounce filet mignon, and a sweet potato.  (Next to the steak, it looks like a twelve-ounce sweet potato!   I could only eat about half of mine.)

Roy had tilapia, a baked potato, and grilled vegetables.

Deb had a six-ounce filet mignon, topped with blue cheese, a sweet potato, and rice.

Each couple shared a delicious cheese cake, served in these small buckets.

This is what was inside.  The size was perfect – just a few teaspoons for each of us.

After leaving the restaurant, we were a few cars behind them, but when getting near the exit for Route 30, they pulled up beside us.  I rolled my window down, and so did Roy.  I think they expected me to say one more goodbye, but I surprised them with a photo.

After that, we headed east and they went west.
