braved the trevails of the journey to attend the monthly fish fry in Union NE. Kim was her usual delightful self, more tollerant of our extended adolesence than any proprietor of a public house need be. And the fellows who were trying to play billards and avoid errant darts were eqully tollerant. The fish was excellent, as always. The company was equally good, and the impromptu car show on Union"s main street was the equal of most local events, with the possible exception of a Tucker of two being restored at the old Studebaker dealers for some movie a few years back.
The darts champion is, at present, Jerry Needham. (Bob Shaw promises another run at the title after thumb surgery, but Jerry is said to be loosing no sleep over the prospect of such a challange.)
Among the first time attentees were Steve and Deb Esplund, Jay and Liz Fluehr, and Brian and Jane Goldsmith. (If we did not list any other first time attendees, please accept our profound appology. The editors do not remember names well, and did not write anything down at the event.) Fish in September will be on Friday, September 25, 1998. Please consider joining us. |
