Some shots from the Boca GTG last night.............

We had a great GTG in Boca last night.

We decided to meet up here............




I got there first so of course I got my White Russian in the bar............




It didn't take long before the rest of the gang showed up............
Unfortunately Jen spent her $49.00 in Tallahassee and couldn't make it and Oscar heard that we were coming so he of course took off.....




Oscar warned us that this was a cheap restaurant and he was right.
They didn't even have a kitchen so they cooked our food directly on our table..




The food with Hiram's new monster watch....




On our GTG's we don't use silly name tags............




Finally the obligatory table shot........
I'm sure there will be more pic's as both Hiram and Dan flashed away....

Great pics, Leo. But good grief, how did you find that place. I hardly ever go west of the Turnpike to eat.

Although I have to admit, we found a great Chinese restaurant, Red Ginger, west of the Turnpike on Sample Road in Coral Springs. If you're in the mood for Chinese, give it a try.

Neither do I but Oscar works there so we decided to give it a try.

Haven't been to the Red Ginger but I'll be happy to check it out...

I didn't realize Oscar worked there. But he wasn't there last night, was he? Are you sure he really does work there?

No, he took off as soon as he heard we were coming...

I'm sure he works there, have seen him beat the drum...

We had a blast and many thanks to Leo for his generous gift of the TRF KY hat [I know a lot of hillbillies are gonna be jealous].
It was great to meet Leo, Hiram, and Elizabeth. Great conversation, food, and of course, watch talk.

Just curious. That Gold Rolex you have, is it the same watch that Roger Moore wore in the Perseuaders? It looks very similar.
