The Overlook

Word of the Day:

Spontaneous: (adjective) performed or occurring as a result of a sudden impulse

Heidi and I were working around the the house, I was planning to mow and she was sewing, getting ready for Hen and 🐥 Chicks next weekend when Connie texted with the offer of a Jeep ride.

I had the pork chop topped with chunky home made applesauce. 🍎 Holy Cow! They glazed carrots 🥕 were fantastic.

We hit the shower and are on the road within 40 minutes and on the way to the Overlook Restaurant in Leavenworth on the Ohio River. It was a great adventure with the Early Stahls. (Jeff and Connie). Early because if you have plans with them you will be home by 9:00. Late Stahls however, (Bruce and Mendy) you are lucky to get home by midnight.)

Heidi had the chicken 🐓 cordon bleu, sweet potato 🍠 fries and glazed carrots. Pretty sure the cordon bleu was just a tad better than the sandwich I had at Arby’s before.

Blackberry cobbler with ice cream was superb!
Outstanding view! Looks like a commercial, doesn’t it?
Jeff, Connie, Heidi and Walt…and the Ohio River
Who knew?

It was a wonderful impromptu afternoon that even included a stop at The Drifters biker bar on the way home. Lots of spontaneity today.

P.S. There was a 3% chance of rain on our Jeep ride. We made it back to Jackson County when we had a few sprinkles that turned into a shower. Jeff accelerated through the 🌧 rain cloud, turned East and returned home from the north. With no doors, we were even dry again by the time we made it home! Thanks Jeff and Connie!
