Abject failure . . .

 
Puppy's Pop noticed that downtown Johnny's has reopened as Billy's so I convinced him to take me out to breakfast this morning. More than an hour later we are back home. Nice people but no celebratory cigar. We expected to see our usual waitress, Natalie but the lady in charge said that they tried to get in touch with her and she never returned their calls. The owner cook had a heck of a time making Puppy's Pop's pancakes! It took him three tries before he had the grill hot enough to cook them correctly and my bacon was outrageously tough and tasteless. Perhaps they will improve but I doubt we'll give them a second chance. We were supposed to be celebrating Grampa's nomination for President of the Yankee Flyers!  It will be interesting to see what happens when they vote in January. There are about 50 members but only about 10 active members! There is some kind of discord at present and the  President and Vice-President were not at the meeting. It was chaired by the Treasurer, I believe. Elections are held yearly. I'd forgotten that Grampa had been President beaucoup years ago.
