Silver Eagles Poem

The second Monday of each month is the day we retired guys have wings and beer at Hooters. We go at 1:15 pm to avoid the lunch hour rush. Many are from our subdivision but we also are joined by area friends.

Ashland Retiree Club - Friday, Jan 28, 2011

Ashland Retiree Club boarded our Pct 3 bus at the Memorial City Shopping Center on Friday, Jan 28.   We did our Tree Sculpture Tour in the morning on Galveston Island.   There are about 23 trees that have been carved in various shapes.

After our tree tour, we had a lunch buffet at Mario's Seawall Italian Restaurant, 628 Seawall Boulevard, 409.763.1693   This Italian eating joint is owned by Antonia and Nilda Smecca, who took the town of Galveston by storm in 1973 by offering authentic Italian cuisine, served as they do in their home town of Gela, Sicily.   The choicest of delicacies, from pastas to pizzas as well as dishes, such as Lasagne, Baked Rigatoni and Eggplant Parmigiana are available here.

After lunch, we rode the Pct 3 bus over the Bolivar Ferry to the community of Crystal Beach, a family oriented beach community.   We returned to Houston after our view of the new construction after Hurricane Ike.
