Valentine's @ the Pub

I know I have probably talked about the pub the before but just in case I haven't. The River Bottom Pub is a hole in the wall bar that I used to drink at as a "kid". Ha Ha - okay not really a kid but definitely underage. In high school one of my best friend's dad used to drink there all the time and he went once with his dad and they server him a beer. (I know this whole story sounds very trashy - but seriously we were good kids.) Dan told me about it one night and so we decided to go up there and just try to order a drink to see if they would serve us. Um, they did! It was like the angels started to sing and the skies opened! We left there that night and promised not to tell any of our high school friends about it. We knew they would all want to go up there and blow it for us. The very next Saturday night I told all my girls about it (apparently I wasn't a very good promise keeper back then) and all of us piled up in the car and headed over to the Pub. When we walked in, Dan and all of his guy friends were there!!! It was hilarious! We both just laughed when we realized we both told everyone. They served us and really didn't care about things like laws or TABC. It was a little piece of high school heaven! Of course once we got older we found much classier places to hang out so the Pub was long forgotten. When Becca and Michelle were in high school; (I'm thinking maybe their jr and sr years) I told them about the pub. It was a secret torch passed down to a whole new generation. I wonder if the Pub will still be around when Nolan is in high school - poor kid...I will know all about it. No drinking for him! :) Anyways, in honor of old times we spent Saturday night at the Pub. Fun night as always! It's the only place that will serve you Miller Lite in a can. Love it!
