ROMEOS

Duffy is really on the ball this week. We had no more than finished our great meals (and service) at Tina's Cafe in Gas, KS. and he was calling me with the location for next Friday. We are going back to Blue Mound! It's always been good food, service and a clean restaurant. Weather is pretty iffy f...

Duffy has called the ride for the 14th to Tina's Place where the waitress' T-Shirts say "DO NOT PASS GAS - EAT AT TINA'S PLACE! They serve breakfast until 10:30 and whether breakfast or otherwise its always been pretty good fare at Tina's. Weather forecast is for 30% chance for rain. Mostly su...

This week we'll go to the Barnhouse Cafe in Leroy, Kansas. The scoop is below. They stop breakfast at 10:30 so Loyal called the arrival time for 9:30. Forecast is for mostly sunny and a high of 68. Probably cool morning but sure sounds like good riding temps. We've been here a number of times over ...

Loyal has arranged a new place for us this week. A Mexican restaurant (with some Gringo dishes). A separate room for about 30 so let's give this new place a try and make them glad to have us. New to the Romeo's but not new to Fort Scott. Been successfully there for over 10 years with good food and ...

A Romeo Favorite at Liberal, MO. They serve breakfast until 11:00 so let's get there around 10:00 a.m. Or, if you want lunch you can time it accordingly. Weather doesn't look too promising with a temp of 59 for the high and rain chances of 56%. That has just got to improve! and probably will as we ...

Loyal has made plans to visit the Lakeview Cafe at Crawford County Lake. Locals call it the Farlington Lake and cafe. He set the arrival time for 10:00 a.m. and they serve breakfast all day. REMEMBER...DO NOT TRY TO CROSS THE SPILLWAY!!! A few have tried and I think all have failed. Here's the scoo...

Weather for Friday this week is to be 65, mild and sunny. Might be a good day for riding to Fort Scott to Lucci's Cafe inside Fort Scott Inn. They will be expecting us around 11:00. Most have been there and know their menu is extensive and breakfast is served all day. Here's the scoop: Lucci's Cafe...

Had a good turnout to Rich Hill Cafe on the 19th. Now we turn our attention to the 26th and a visit to Nanna Jo's Café in LaCygne, Ks. They open at 11:00 and do not serve breakfast. But, they've always had great food otherwise. Weather forecast is for mostly sunny and 66 degrees. Hope to see many f...

We're Back! Loyal has made arrangements for the SE (and all other) Area Romeos and all guests to be at the following location: 11:00 a.m. RICH HILL CAFE 723 E. PARK AVE RICH HILL, MO 417-395-4111 This is kind of short notice but we hope for a good turnout. Weather is to be sunny and in the mid-fift...

Having nothing posted from the SEK bunch for two months just doesn't seem right. Loyal and I have been able to get out a time or two together to grab a meal. And, we've each found reason enough to just go for a ride on a bike instead of in a pickup. Loyal went to Joplin to get tarps to cover up som...

Loyal and family have shared that there was cremation...as Judy requested. There will a memorial service at a later date near Emporia, Kansas. Her obituary can be fund at the following link:

She will be missed.

We are sad to report that Judy Duffy passed away in the early evening of Monday, August 3rd. While she had tested negative in recent Covid -19 tests, the damage caused to her already compromised lungs proved to be more than she could survive. Our deepest sympathy is extended to Loyal and the famili...

Loyal and Judy tested negative for the Corona Virus as much as two weeks ago. My apologies for not posting that sooner. He was pretty ill for about 10 days but is now seeming to slowly be getting stronger and better. Judy, however, has not been so fortunate. After being in the hospital for a couple...

Loyal and Judy Duffy have both now tested negative for the Corona virus. He is a good week or 10 days past it and doing better after being pretty sick for about 10 days. Judy is not so fortunate. Although she was home for a couple of days, her oxygen level dropped and she went back to Pittsburg hos...

Folks have been asking about those of us in SEK mentioned in earlier posts. Lyle and Marilyn are fine. Loyal and Judy Duffy however, have been less fortunate with both still testing positive. Judy is pretty ill having been sent back to the Pittsburg, KS hospital. Diagnosed with pneumonia she is aga...

With positive Covid-19 cases continuing to rapidly increase throughout our normal riding area, it just makes good sense to put off our Friday gatherings down this way for a while. Not much else needs to be said. I can report the two couples mentioned in earlier posts seem to be improving with every...

Marilyn and I are in quarantine. Loyal and Judy are in quarantine and she's not feeling very well at all. The numbers of Covid-19 cases is rapidly rising in SE Kansas. A decision has been made to exercise good sense and not have a ROMEO ride next Friday. No one is more disappointed than are we but ...

Sorry this is late. We are invited to return to the new (but old) Barnhouse Cafe in Leroy, KS. Although recently re-opened, they do recall the days of ROMEO'S coming to visit and are eager to have us back. Eat in or carry out to the park across the street. Breakfast until 10:30 then lunch after tha...
