- With the rain leaving the forecast for Friday, and temps projected in the mid 70's, I thought I would head for Grits and Groceries near Belton. You definitely need to bring cash, or something called a "checkbook" as they don't take any plastic. With a small inside dining area, it's also likely we'll be seated outside, but with the projected temperatures, it should be just fine. If you're interested, we'll plan on leaving at 10:30 am from the Key Mart parking area. Hope to see you there. Steve
- The string of consecutive rides continues and so do the unseasonably warm temperatures. The riding conditions and a favorite destination brought out a dozen riders today. Those joining me included Dan, Len, Gadget (long time no see), Ray (also long time no see, and riding a great looking Indian), Russ, David D., Bill, Pat, Terry, Kevin, and Ed (can there be a brighter green riding jacket?). We made our way around Clemson and Anderson as we drove the back roads through Pickens and Anderson counties. Many of us had been on most of the roads we took today, but it has been a while. When we arrived, our server greeted us and told us she had a table set up for our large group (thanks Paulette for the call ahead) outside. She was quite friendly and got our drinks right away. It was very pleasant sitting outside as the temperature continued to climb. Next, she took our meal orders and in a very short time, started bringing out our food. Like Ed commented, it's amazing how quickly they could make this much food in such a small kitchen. The food is always great here and orders included everything from fried oysters and a shrimp Po Boy, to pulled pork and grilled pimento cheese sandwiches. I think there was a to go order for one of their great desserts, but everyone else managed to restrain the urge. The ride home was more direct and we did pass a cotton field along the way to confirm we were riding through the country in the South. Some of the riders split off to run some errands while the rest of us headed back home. Overall, it was another truly great day on two wheels. Steve
Yum!!!
