Default Lunch with jaxgator

Stopped into Jax yesterday and got to enjoy some very good sushi and Sapporo with David and his brother.

Was really nice getting to meet you gents and sip a few

Next round is on me.

Thanks again David, it was a really nice way to break up the long trip.

Enjoyed it very much myself Scott. Thanks for taking the time to stop.

I take it you made it to Clearwater or where ever you were going to meet up with your buddies safely and didn't get lost?

If you have time, give me a shout on one of your visits if you'd like to do lunch, dinner and/or a couple of beers.

Been traveling up from Orlando most Saturdays on day trips. Mom is entering into her final days, so that keeps me busy while I am there. Will give you a shout whenever I am there with free time.

I always take 318 west at Citra over to 75, I don't think I have ever been down blanding that far.

Damn Gene, I saw the signs for Orange Park on the way there but figured it would have been a bit late to catch you.

On the way back we can rally the N. FL contingent to put a hurtin' on a few cases.
