When I was younger it used to be CJ's for quarter beer night, then we matured over a few more years and ended up at Tex-Mex for One $ Corona's every Thursday night. On Fridays was the Varsity Club and eventually age and a pay raises/promotions gave us a few extra bucks to afford a nice meal at Bennigans.... (and appetizers during happy hour). Back then I didn't think life could be any better!

Times change, and now the locations of getting together are way different than those broke younger days. Today, it always seems we're gathered around some big table at Fiesta Jalapeno's, a kitchen island at somebody's home or a fire pit in someones back yard. I would not trade these times or people for all the bourbon in Kentucky. A bunch of others were not here for this photo as maybe their watches are off or they like to be fashionable in showing up late- but in spirit they were here.

A gathering of this group is always a reason to "make time" to attend. Truly, Life is GOOD!
