It's time we start planning for our next meet & greet.
Our window of opportunity is only a couple days this year so that Tim can attend. We promised last year that we would schedule it so he could be there. The best days would be Sat Dec 26th or Sun Dec 27th. We could probably do Monday evening the 28th if need be, but weekends are usually best. Please post suggestions as to where you would like to meet. As usual, we will do a poll for time and place which I will put together once we get some suggestions on locations. I would like to start the poll in mid-November to allow us time to figure it out then notify the place we plan to attend so they can accommodate us. Personally, I wouldn't mind going to the new Hacienda. I haven't been there since the old place burned down. I know it's not a mom/pop place, but that's my suggestion. I also think Saturday evening would be a good time. Anyone else? Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind~Dr. Suess

I just drove by there today, and notice Ryan's is for sale. The entire building, business, and equipment are listed as being on the block according to the sign on the side of the building.

I just drove by there today, and notice Ryan's is for sale. The entire building, business, and equipment are listed as being on the block according to the sign on the side of the building. That sign has been there for quite a long time. We did a small pub crawl to celebrate Michelle's birthday last month and Ryan's was our last stop. I asked them about the sale. (Actually I noticed that a majority of the bars in town were for sale - either posted with signs or listed through a real estate agency). Basically I was told it had been for sale for awhile, as were many in MC, and I commented that I hoped it would not occur. Ryan's really does have one of the best bars as far as quality tap options and both quality and quantity of all drinking options (other than I did not check their wine offerings). We have eaten there for lunch several times and a few times for dinner in the last year and always had good service. The food is plain, but inexpensive comparably. I am not as healthy of an eater as you, CCR - I was raised on meat, potatoes and lots of gravy. Yet somehow our children became vegetarians, which proves food really is a personal preference - either that or their Mother was a really bad cook LOL. That said, I understand others on this board have not had that experience there...but a thought did occur to me. I have not been there on a Friday or Saturday night. If I am in MC and go out on a weekend night, it is more likely to listen to some music in Rocks bar at Blue Chip and/or play in the poker room. All establishments have the potential for a different atmosphere on the weekend, compared to week nights and daytime, just due to the patrons at those times. (Ask Michelle sometime to tell you about her first experience walking in to Ryan's when she moved here.) I am up for a new experience so if Ritz Klub is more acceptable, that will add to my experiences. * "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
