Lunch, Friday, Feb 27, 11:30am - The Grill at Whispering Woods in Jordan, Arkansas

Post by Burgere »

Hey gang. I switched our lunch to Friday (27th) instead of Thursday due to lingering rain chances on Thursday. Friday looks beautiful with slightly warmer temps. Hope to see you at “The Grill at Whispering Woods” for lunch on Friday Feb 27 at 11:30 am. I will call Michelle over there and switch our reserved table to Friday. I’ll request the best table in the house with of course a custom Welcome Romeo sign .. for that personal touch 😀

Hope you can make it on Friday. Looking forward to seeing you !!

Ed ..

Great RTE today gang over to The Grill at Whispering Woods in Jordan Arkansas. We had 15 riders which included one new ROMEO hopeful .. Scott Merryman who is Todd Merryman’s brother. We also had one driver. Mr. Fred Harmon drove his beautiful corvette. Man he looked good behind the wheel. Anyway, we were so glad that Fred came back for a second day. He also shared his fried cod appetizer with us. Man was that good ! So good, Leo chose it as his entree with some armadillo pie .. or possum pie. That looked real good too. I probably should have just gotten coffee and maybe two pieces of pie. My burger was nothing to write home about. Still, our server did a good job. We had a great table outside and the weather was delightful. Had a great time hanging out with our ROMEOS today !!

As for next week, I am unavailable on Wed and Thursday. The Baxter hospital is engaging me further with my volunteering duties. Joining a new board starting next week. We also have some rain and cooler temps coming. I’m thinking about some good breakfast at Brenda’s on Tuesday morning. I’ll get us a table reserved. Look for that post soon. More great rides coming !!

And lastly, Leo is having some orthopedic shoulder work next Tuesday March 3rd. Please keep him in your prayers. We want him back as soon as we can get him.

Fred Harmon showed up in his beautiful corvette. The pie must have drawn you back to us for a second day in a row. I doubt it was the food. I was just not impressed.

Glad to see you Steve Rogers. I had the same jacket as you did. I find that honey bees are attracted to that color.

John was reaching out his hand to Todd Merryman for a friendly handshake, but Todd just wanted nothing to do with it. Todd would rather go toe to toe with you than shake your hand. Just teasing. Todd is a teddy bear and a great guy. He is my personal Ride Director body guard. Nobody mess with me.

There it is again. I approach Scott Merryman and he reaches for something. I may impose a NO conceal carry on our RTEs.

Jim Eickman approaching me to give me a couple solid gold momentos. I will cherish them always. Mike Roland watching Mike Newlun in disbelief as Mike tried for ever to remove his helmet. He finally realized the chin strap was still connected. It happens.

Always a treat seeing our Ex - Ride Director. Leo loves his pie. He got the cod sticks, coffee and pie. They could not mess those up. Smart man.

Good thing you are married Fred. You’d have them hanging all over you. The beautiful vet would not hurt your chances either. Best looking corvette I’ve seen in a long time.

Neil has so many Moto Guzzis. Sometimes before a ride I’ll ask him what he’s gonna ride that day. His response is always .. “a Moto Guzzi.”

Good pic of Neil’s V65 Lario. He really wound that thing up when he left the ride. It sounded real good and everything seemed to hold together pretty well.

Scott Merryman’s beautiful V7 Moto Guzzi. We are considering renaming our chapter to The ROMEO NCA Moto Guzzi club. We just need to get about 47 more of our riders addicted to this Italian phenomenon. If we can do that, Neil will take over as RD.

Couple ROMEOS at the overflow table. Looks like John was trying to control his hands again. Like I had posted before .. his many past girlfriends loved his quick and unpredictable hand speed.

Several of us were looking for Leo. He ordered coffee and pie and then he just vanished. I managed to get a picture of him just wandering the parking lot. We’re keeping a close eye on him.

Leo finished his delicious fried cod appetizer and was wondering .. now what ! He looked very satisfied and at peace. Fred was chewing, sleeping and describing the size of something all at the same time. Again, we are glad he came back to hang out with us.
