On Wednesday we took a much needed trip to Cape so we could actually sit down in a restaurant and have people wait on us. After considering several different places we decided to try Mary Jane's Bourbon & Smokehouse. Old friends and volleyball teammates Tony and Debbie met us there. We don't see them very often, especially Tony, so it was great they showed up.
We got there first and there were only two tables available since half the tables couldn't be used. We chose the one by the window which is also in the bed of an old pickup. The pickup idea is really cool but it made it hard for my old body to get into and out of. We were disappointed that they didn't have draft beer but I tried the Brooklyn Brown Ale and once the Glue tried it she had it too. Really smooth and tasty beer. I ended up ordering a rueben while the Glue went with cowboy chili. I was skeptical on the pretzel bun that the rueben came on but it was good as was the sandwich as a whole. I ordered brussel sprouts as my side and they were awesome, probably the best I've had. The Glue liked her chili but said it tasted more like gumbo. Tony had to leave so he could powerwash their pool area in the rain but Debbie joined us as we went to Katy O'ferrells which is almost a must stop for us when we're in Cape. Their house irish red is really good and we both also had a pint of Harp. Debbie left us for our next stop at Broussards to get some etouffee to bring home. We each had a beer at the bar while we waited and then headed home to enjoy the etouffee. To top off a good couple days I played nine holes yesterday and didn't have any back flare ups until the last hole. I played much better than I thought I would since I couldn't turn loose on the swing. It was great being out there but wish they'd ease the restrictions.
