Cookies always does a fantastic job of reserving a table for us and keeping the coffee cups full. Never order 2 pancakes as they are a "fill the plate" size. Bill rode his classic Norton and I rode my new (to me) Kaw Z-400. A few photos:

Back to one of our favorites this Thursday at 9am. They always set up a table for us (and I did call them).

Just a few of us regulars--but we had a surprise visit from "Long John" who rode from the ROMEO meet in Eureka Springs. We were also joined by 3 Patriot Guard riders on their way to a Goldwing meet in Harrison. The restaurant was nice with a varied menu and reasonable prices. One of the lo...

Wednesday @ 10am at a NEW place that looks pretty good. Little red river cafe just South of the bridge on 65 past the turn to Leslie. I called them and they serve breakfast until 11.

Nice crowd. Joey came on his 1100 Goldwing that he STOLE at the auction--you can see part of it lwr rt corner (forgot to take full photo). Special today was half order of biscuits and gravy with hashbrowns, coffee included for under 5 bucks.

Looks like a little break in the rain on Wednesday--supposed to be dry until 2. Good food, great prices and service at Guffy's.

Another ride on beautiful twisty 14 to Diamond city and Bunker Bar and Grill on the golf course. They open at 11 and that's when I told them we would be there this Tuesday. Outdoor covered seating looks great .

Small group--but there were 2 buses of tourists there also and Ferguson's handled the crowd very well. I didn't take any photos there because going down the road to Gilbert presented better photo ops. Attatched to the country store is an open air restaurant and music venue but it's only open on the ...

Friday shows to be rain free for a ride to Fergusons in St.Joe at 10am (our usual middle of the week looked rainy).

13 of us at "Friend's Cafe" and we were joined by Junior and Shirley and Bob? from the North. Some of the off road riders came from their TAT adventure after camping. Afterwards Steve and I rode a short distance to the golf club in Diamond city to check out their restaurant--and it looked ...

Lets try this again without the bad weather--only slightly earlier. Friends cafe, Lead Hill Ar @ 10am. Breakfast served all day if you prefer https://www.google.com/maps/place/Friends+cafe/@36.4201075,-92.9183918,1818m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x87ce5742f3e5ad57:0xd1115a172940ac24!8m2!3d36.4196045!4d...

Weather does NOT look decent for Tuesday into Wednesday AM. We should probably skip this one.

Lets go a different direction this Wednesday to Friend's cafe in Lead hill. 14 is a hoot to ride and the weather looks decent. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Friends+cafe/@36.4203352,-92.9168073,909m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x87ce5742f3e5ad57:0xd1115a172940ac24!8m2!3d36.4196045!4d-92.9144549!16s%...

Once again "Wunderground" weather shows Wednesday as the only sunny day--so lets make it our Ride/Meet/Greet/Eat day at 10A at the printing press.

Hooray--they are back open! They serve breakfast until 11 and I told them about 10 to 15 of us would be there on Wednesday 15th at 9:30. I will be AWOL as numerous engagements with my "free jobs" are on my schedule.
