Taco Tuesday with the Hillbillies

(July 10, 2012)

Kirk, Deanna, Drew and Mason raved about it....So this Tuesday we decided to drive up the hill to see for ourselves. "It" turned out to be tasty taco's and relaxing camaraderie with some of our fellow hillbillies.  'Twas warm outside on the veranda, but we found a table for two waiting for us inside. The two gals (Gretchen and Kathryn) cooking the tacos were pretty busy and funny. Some folks from Rough and Ready (at the next table) heard about Taco Tuesday and were also trying it for the first time. They enjoyed the tasty, smaller corn taco's so much that they ordered a second helping. Cascade Shores General Store Cafe Taco Tuesday specialty goes from 5 to 7:pm. The place is  located at the 4-way stop intersection of Banner Quaker Hill Rd. and Pasquale Road just a few minutes from Scotts Flat Reservoir where we've swam, boated and fished over the years. The store has a complete selection of food and snack items including fresh milk and bread, beer (including micro-brews), wine, ice cream, fresh coffee, and a few other other essentials.

They're even better tasting than they look. These are the larger flour ones.

Old acquaintances Kim and Kevin showed up on their motorcycle. So did grand-son Drew. This is his favorite Tuesday evening place to eat.

It's easy to see why us hillbillie's might like to hang out here on Tuesdays.

And so....Tuesday July 17

We decided to drop by for some taco's and maybe see more old friends, or family. Kevin was here, but Kim was late getting off work. Kirk, Deanna, Mason and eventually Drew showed up. We were hoping they would.

The fun part of being a hillbillie is that you never know who you might run into on the hill. This man with the red bike reminds me of Erik the Red, the famous Viking who discovered Greenland; a powerful man with fantastic red, curly hair and beard who is also depicted wearing a helmet.
