Was just ok – Best part of the evening was socializing with neighbors Diane & Nancy.
Several options for salads:Reg/just plain lettuce/tomatoes/bowtie & potato salads. Meat Options for sandwiches: Ham/turkey/thin. Many bread choices but bread slices way too thick. Many people just put the meat on the plate minus the bread.

Mrs. Q had: Taco/Nacho Madness. ok
The Q-tips say: Munchie Madness was nothing special.Everything was breaded & fried. Because of the breading, & no signs posting what it is, was difficult to know was in the pot. We had our usual Libations. Ordered off the Reg. Menu instead MUNCHIE MADNESS.
Pizza Madness?? ?Maybe. Taco madness? ??The meat- beef/chicken was good but many just piled the food on the dishes instead of tacos.
Cannot orderfrom the regular menuanymore on Monday Madness.
Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.
Q-tips say: Just ok.
The acting is good and the directing has flair and energy. The problem is the film is plotless and just rambles on and on. “Marty Supreme” is a story of a guy burdened by how great he thinks he’s supposed to be.

The park has a paved walking trail that has exercise machines along the trail, a dock area overlooking a lake, nice bathroom facilities, a playground and picnic tables under a covered pavilion. Nice quiet park with friendly people.
Yes, we do feed the fish & turtles with small pieces of saltine crackers.
The park is planned out very well both for various exercise stations as well as interest for kids. Lots of birds and trees, lovely walk in nature & enjoy the turtles/fish in the lake.
