Sept 4 - Snooze, an A.M. Eatery

 

Richard, Steve and gang are going to Oink up by what used to be the Paradise Valley Mall. And I've picked something new, Snooze, an A.M Eatery. Though we may have been to a different Snooze elsewhere at some point. They all blur together over the years. 

Take a holiday trip back to the 1990s with me, and rock on...

August 28 - Scramble

 

Richard and gang are going north this week, to Moon Valley Cafe. The 3's will be taking a spin yet to be planned, but ending up at Scramble on N 7th St. At this point, Sunday is looking dry and monsoon-free. 

Alan Parsons first claim to fame was as recording engineer for The Beatles "Abbey Road" record. Someone played this album for me when it first came out in 1977, hard to believe that it was 45 years ago. 

Rock on...

August 21 - Zookz

 

Richard, Steve and the 4's are stopping this week at Mi Pueblo, and Mike and the 3's will be trying a new place (for us anyway), Zookz at 32nd and Camelback. 

That is, if its not raining. Hoping the trend for afternoon and evening storms holds, and we can get out Sunday morning. In any case, please, rock on...

August 14 - Luci's at the Orchard

 

The 4's are cycling to Whataburger this Sunday, and the 3's will be stopping at Luci's at the Orchard for breakfast. That is, if it isn't raining. 

If you look closely at the August schedule, you'll see our August 21 destination as well.

Rock on...

August 7 - Matt's Big Breakfast

 

Richard and the 4's are heading west to The Cracked Egg this Sunday, always a nice breakfast. 

Meanwhile, the 3's will be stopping at Matt's Big Breakfast. If memory serves, they are not keen on splitting checks, so either bring a credit card or enough small bills to easily throw into the kitty without having to beg for change first. 

Here's a favorite of  mine, a haunting song of a young man becoming an adult and dying on the same day. Rock on...
