Ok, one more before I go to bed. (By the way, this is the latest I have been up all week!! It's 8:34p here now.)

Any hoo... the pic with this blog is from inside the steak place we were treated tonight. Isn't the view gorgeous???   I have more pics in the album... Take a look & let me know what you think.

OH... Have you ever heard of the "green flash" or "green spark" when the sun is setting on the ocean?? Well, Dad says he always thought it was a myth until one time a few years ago he saw it with a friend... Well, he was telling us (his friends & I) & so we watch (& I took a video of the sunset at that time)... SO, anyway, I SAW THE GREEN FLASH!!!  It was just a brief moment... if you blink you miss it! It was weird I saw it & was thinking, was that it... because from inside it wasn't quite green... but I could tell it might be. Anyway, just as I was thinking it, Dad said "did you see it?" & his buddy is saying yes...

So, I turn around & said... I got video of it... However, you really can't see it that well... you have to be looking really close to see it. At least I think you can see it on the video... You'll have to be the judge... but I'm not sure how to get it so you all can see it.

Moving on... this place Dad's friends took us to is called F. McKlintok's (sp?) & I'll tell you... It's better than Brown Derby, Logan's, or even Outback!!! EVERYTHING was FANTASTIC!!!

Get this... dessert is included in the price of the meal. (Only ice cream... but still great!)

I had a 8oz Top Sirloin, while the rest got a Small Filet Mignons. OH, let me back up... When you sit down they give you a basket of Onion Rings... MAN THEY ARE THE BEST EVER!! Then you get a salad (good, nothing out of the ordinary there... except it was very tasty.)... As you're thinking they forgot about you, they bring out your steak... along with (for every meal) season potatoes (very very good!) & bbq baked beans & grilled toast. The beans were not bad, I just didn't like the sauce. But that's just my taste.

When my steak came out, it was extremely rare... but they cooked a little more & it was heavenly!!! Oh & they actually got my well done grilled onions perfect on the first time! (That's very rare!!)

Then came dessert, as mentioned, just ice cream... but very tasty!!!

Before we left, we stopped at the gift shop. I got a couple items. Couldn't resist.

Ok, that's all for now... I am not getting sleepy... & a bit chilled... it's a cool 45 degrees! (LOL  ... I know it's brrr 20 degrees there!) Jealous yet?

Talk to you all later, maybe tomorrow!! :) Stay warm, B! :)
