It Happened One Cold Night...

There were two girls, there was an epic lineup and a fantastic venue. But, there was rain and freezing cold (for Florida) and soggy grass, wet pants and a wee bit of alcohol induced tomfoolery. Finally, there was a difficult decision that ended in quite possibly the best night of pancakes in the world.



In honor of those memories tonight (this was composed on Wed. night) is breakfast for dinner night.
