Austin - Friday lunch gatherings for 2017

[coachrick]

Ok, as Good Friday cries out for fish I would suggest Catfish Parlor. Man we have to get better in planning ahead.

Catfish are jumpin' at the Parlour! Seems like a very reasonable selection; but get there early!

Woohoo. The Parlour is one of my favorites! Seems like every time we go there something comes up to keep me out. Hopefully nothing does tomorrow!

On my way... bringing duck eggs in case anyone wants to buy some.

I think something was wrong with the eggs *LOL (No seriously, everything is fine)

 

[TheDan]

Oh, those cost extra...

 

[Mic]

Okay, the next two Fridays are chosen.....
21st - Stiles Switch BBQ
28th - Burgers....But I cannot remember where. Somebody with a younger memory than me pipe in please.....

 

[ShootTheBreeze]

Mic you are really getting old, we said Moonie's Burgers for the 28th:-)

[coachrick]

Dang...Stiles is 18 miles from where I'll be; but I'll see if I can break away.
Moonie's next week should be easier for me. I can't miss three in a row!

 

[Hoji]

Going to miss another one. Damn. Have to go to Irving Friday morning.

 

[coachrick]

Assuming Moonie's has finished their renovation that was under way the last time I visited many week ago. Also has a new outparcel just in front, so we lose a little parking area. I hope I can make it this week


Hoji, 220 miles on Friday morning??? I hope you have a chopper or private jet! You might get junior senior rates now!!!
Travel safely!

A fair question! 183 @ Anderson Mill...southwest corner w/Starbucks, Burger King, Tuesday Morning, Tino's
1100 arrival for those who wish to be punctual

 

[coachrick]

Can't make any promises; but I'll try to get there today...maybe late.

 

[Mic]

En roure. 10 min late

We're headed to Rudy's this week...then a side trip to GT Distributors for 5.11 days. I'm due to win a door prize!!!

Actually, you could visit GT first and try for an early door prize, then go back after lunch to double dip!!!

Oh man - my new S&W Shield (from PSA - $319.99 before $75 cast rebate) was just delivered to GT's this morning. Hope they can get that shipment logged in and call me for pickup before Friday. Bet that place will be packed.

Well done! Good excuse to visit during the sale! From what I've noticed in the past, the morning isn't too crowded; but it seems plenty of folks take their "lunch" time to drop by. Drawings are on the hour; so arriving a few minutes before the top of the hour means not having to wait TOO long to hear your name called for a door prize!

Rudy's then GT...not a bad way to spend a couple of hours!!!

 

[Armybrat]

Picked up the Shield yesterday, so probably won't go to GT's again today.
the trigger on that Shield is pretty gritty - rough as a cat's tongue. Hope it will smooth out.

It's a birthday present for my DIL - she was complaining that the Colt Series 70 1911 .45 (stainless) I got for her last year is "too heavy".

 

[coachrick]

Wondering how the group fared on Friday...did we send Big Dipper off appropriately? I couldn't get away from Cedar Park until after 1:00 and figured everyone would be long gone. On the plus side, that meant I didn't take a door prize away from anyone who went to GT for 5.11 Days

Did we formulate a plan for this week?

Speaking of Cedar Park, you should read your police chief's op-ed piece in today's Austin American Statesman concerning the gun bills in the Legislature.
