Redneck Ambiance






Jesse and I were invited to go to dinner and a movie with some of our friends: Cathy and Arnold. We went to a world famous BBQ place (Shealy's)and then to a drive-in theatre (The Big Mo). I must say it was quite the experience! After driving about 30 minutes to get to Shealy's we waited for a parking space, then for our friends. There was a line outside the door that went around the side of the building, even though it was pouring rain! While we waited, two Church busses (from different churches) left with thier parishioners, and the line shortened dramatically. Then we get inside, get to the register to order the buffet and halfway through the transaction the power goes out! Now it's dark, very dark. And they have to get a generator going, and get some light in there. These people break out a flood light. Now that's ambiance! We ate our food, then headed toward the theatre. We got there and set up. We faced the back of the jeep towards the screen, opened the hatch, lay out our blankets and pillows and settled down for the
double feature: GI Joe and Transformers 2. It
was an awesome date, for those who haven't been
out since Sydney was born. HUGE thanks to Cera!

By the way: those are my feet, not Jesse's

Sounds like fun! Love the floodlight ambiance. Guess they were saving the candles for a special occasion, as if you're not special enough!

I don't believe those are your feet, Amber. You have baby feet!
