Greetings everyone, it's been a couple crazy weeks here in the triple cites between Irene and Lee - I'm just glad it's over. How we endure all of this - god only knows. We're strong and a tough group of people, so we will overcome.
I hope you all made it through these tough times. My one silver lining this week was the birth of my new grand baby girl, Katelynn Nicole. Congratulations to Erin and John for a job well done. {Flood Baby}
So welcome back... we missed ya... Last weekend our crew headed to the luxurious Showboat Casino in Atlantic City for a couple days of planned R & R. We had a rough time getting out on Thursday during the height of the storm as many of the Highways and back roads were flooded over. But like a couple of Boy Scouts - we got out.
Atlantic City Boardwalk is not quite what it once was but it's still a pretty exciting area to visit if you haven’t been there. Everyone leaves home with the thought of hitting it big but few very rarely do. Most lose their ass and complain about it but hey “it is what is”. If you can keep it under control and spend responsibly, it can be a lot of fun.
By the second day we all decided instead of making Donald Trump richer, we would treat ourselves to a good time instead. So Friday afternoon we had a great seafood dinner, then came back and dressed to the nines and headed out for an evening of local entertainment.
For the next six hours we partied like it was 1999 all over again. We took in some clubs and seen some great bands and made countless numbers of new friends.
We finished up the evening consuming over $200 worth of Whiskey and that was truly a new accomplishment for even the SCB by any standard. We kept it all in check as we finished out the night walking home two miles on the boardwalk.
Next time we need to work our way backwards, that will make the trip back to the hotel a bit easier.
Great trip, great time boys... can't wait till next time. Like I used to tell my boys, the sign of a good evening of partying is "nobody got hurt" "nobody died" and "nobody got arrested" –priceless!
On to this week’s show:
Friday evening we’re in downtown Chenango Forks at Davy's Last Chance Saloon
The show begins at 9pm. We hope you can stop down and say “hi”
Tell us about how the floods affected you.
In closing we would like to wish Brock Towers as very safe deployment into the Marines next week. Hurry back home buddy as Saturday evening was your night to party. Thanks for including the Short Change Band in your plan before you leave.
And again as I close here, I wish you all well and be safe.
Peace and love,
Mikee Dee^^
