June Meeting

[Ghillie]

How about Hank's Grill in Mckinney. Right off the Central Expwy and we could probably land the whole patio to ourselves

[BnB Tom]

Won't that be a 2fer at Hank's?  Those of us participating in the Poker Run will be there again on the 19th.  
  
     I don't have anything against Hank's but thought we might mix it up a bit.  Just my . .

thought it might be a teaser, but I am open. It only started as my dos centavos

[Ghillie]

I would suggest Redneck Heaven in Lewisville, but the ladies in the group might lynch me.

[Disco]

It doesn't matter where the meeting is and it wouldn't hurt to be at the same place twice in 10 days.  If you wanna' go, you go.

Hank's is fine for me.

[Ghillie]

If it's agreeable, can we start a head count?

[LemonDrop]

Wasn't there a meeting at Loose Wheels last year too or was it longer than that?  You know when you get old your memory begins to go

I believe it was April '09.

WOW!  Lemon Drop is still 'droppin' in! 

 Lori just asked me a few days ago if you were riding or posting.  I told her I hadn't

   seen or heard from you for several months.  Thought maybe you didn't love us anymore 

Hope to see you at the meeting and/or the Poker Run.

[Houdini]

One, maybe two, maybe three for Hank's.

For perspective, here's where we've been since August '09 V.2

May '10 - Blue Goose Cantina, Plano, Collin County
April '10 - Love and War in Texas, Plano, Collin County
March '10 - Randy White's BBQ, Frisco, Collin County
February '10 - Bone Daddy's BBQ, Richardson, Dallas County
January '10 - Gloria's SalvaTex, Garland, Dallas County
December '09 - Hooter's, Grapevine, Tarrant County
November '09 - BBQ @ flyboy's in Melissa, Collin County
October '09 - Mercado Juarez, Ft Worth, Tarrant County
September '09 - Ballard Street Cafe, Wylie, Collin County
August '09 - RG's Burgers, Denton, Denton County

So, out of 10 meetings, we have Denton County at 10%, Tarrant County at 20%, Dallas County at 20%, and Collin County at 50%.  I agree with the "you fish where the fish are" philosophy, but it's been 6 months since we've been to the west half of the metro and the club ride this month starts and ends in Collin County.

My first $0.01 says let's go west - even if it's just a little bit.  If that doesn't work, my second $0.01 says let's at least mix it up a bit and not do Hank's twice in 9 days.  There, that's $0.02.

How about Prairie House Restaurant 10001 Us Highway 380, Crossroads, TX 76227.  Its a litle West and a little North.  Good food and the Buffalo Burger was great .

As much as I like the idea of a west meeting, the attendance hasn't been good for a west meeting since 2001.  So, as one of the most western riders, I'd rather ride a longer distance and have a larger gathering.

Just doing my part to get this thread to page two before the spot is announced! ~Jeff

[LemonDrop]

Lurking mostly.  Riding a lot, but with BACA.  They have kept me going every weekend. Sherman to San Antonio.

[HayHauler]

Hay, I think I can make this Dallas meeting thingy.  I will be in town and surely will be hungry by the time 7 p.m. rolls around.    I'm staying in Irving near the airport, so it doesn't really matter where.

I have no $.02, just post where y'all will be meetin' and I'll show.   

But I will be ridin in this...

[Ghillie]

hey Jet I would be up for Prairie House or even better Parker Bros one of these nights.

[BnB Tom]

Hmmm.  Wasn't one of the Parker Bros. involved with Elvis or something?

  And maybe the other brother was the guy who did the dinner house rolls!   

Looks like Prairie House gets the nod.

[The JET]

Ghillie,
Is that the Traildust Stake House?  If so, can sure get into one of those Ribeyes! We’ve got to try them one month real soon. Do they still cut your Necktie off?

Later

[Ghillie]

That's the original Traildust and the only one left in existence to my knowledge. I almost cried when I realized that the one by the Mesquite Rodeo, that had a being remodeled by new owners sign up for ages, had suddenly been replaced by a big pile of rubble. When I was a kid my dad would drive us up to 380 a couple of times a year for a special treat. Later when I was first married we lived over by the rodeo. The Traildust had an all you can eat night on Wednesday, I was there pretty much every week for a couple of years. The slide, the dance floor, the food, I sure miss that place.

[Disco]

I/we would be all over a ride-to-eat at the Trail Dust.  The food is dependably good and reasonably priced.  It would not work well as a place for a meeting though.  The C&W music starts early is is way too loud to talk over - even upstairs.
