What a treat that was! They served us steak, red snapper, mashed potatoes, Brussel sprouts and a blackberry desert. His wife Chantal can cook!! It was such a pleasure meeting their children and mother as well. We hope to visit these friends again in the future. Thursday evening we got a tour of Athens, Georgia from my son Alex and his sweet girlfriend Meg. They took us to dinner at a cool Mexican dive where the pups accompanied us on the patio. Then we went to Creature Comforts brewery where we tasted some good brews. Love these two sweet people!
