We started out at Southern Appalachian Brewery a great place on Locust Street. Our intention was to have a beer, talk a bit and head on home early... But.....
John was hungry, Phil had not eaten since two PM and I've never been known to turn down a pizza (topping) so when it came up for suggestions I mentioned Two Guys Pizza & Ribs and off we went like 3 of the 13 Rebels. John and I are Jersey Boys who grew up on New York Pizza, in fact John has traveled the world including three trips to Italy and Sicily in his repertoire. With all that gourmet worldly knowledge he gives 2 Guys in Hendersonville a Big Thumbs Up for quality food and service.
The place was jam packed with people and buzzing with excitement. Yet despite the crowd and high energy Melody, Mandy, Raf and John greeted us and treated us like special guests. This is the Beauty and this is the Magic of 2 Guys Pizza and Ribs on Church Street downtown Hendersonville NC. They Love what they Do and they Love You! We played a quick round of air hockey and mini basket ball in their Game Room and while I was shooting hoops a father treated his little girl to Skee Ball. 2 Guys is a Family Place that treats you like you're part of the Family.

Despite my best intentions to keep my camera in my pocket we started having so much fun I just had to capture a few memories. With many thanks to a very charming lady, Tiffany at Morning Glory Productions, who not only offered to take our picture, she had the presence of mind to adjust the camera setting so we could see, we have a few Flash Photos to preserve the evening. My personal thanks to JoLynn, John and Phil for being so kind to fill the evening with their wit and wisdom and to Melody for Making All Good Things Happen at 2 Guys!
Next Week 2 Guys will feature headliner Raf's Rock, Roll, Rhythm and Blues Band!
Love is a wonderful experience when shared and expressed in so many ways and for so many years. I have the pleasure of working with two very dear and special people who recently celebrated their marriage of 50 Years. With so many years and so many memories what can someone do to make your loved ones birthday special? George began Ruth's birthday project over a year ago, carving this incredibly beautiful bird.
This finely detailed creature has just landed on the branch to guard his precious cargo. George brought his Cardinal to life sculpting each nuance with dedication, devotion, determination and love. The winged father has just landed and is still poised with tail feathers spread to cushion his landing. George has captured the heart of his subject and crafted the image with the hands of true artistry. He did it with love and more importantly, he did it for love so to this I add my own Happy Birthday Dear Ruth and thank you for your inspiration.
