    Barbeque

    A buddy and I look at that map a few times a year and talk about taking 2 days off, one to try all of the eastern restaurants and one for the western. A sandwhich at each would keep us fed for the day.

    Thanks everyone. He is still on top of the world. He hasn't stopped playing/practicing his guitar since that night. He has also asked me to find him his own hat.
