(crutches in the car, but I hobbled my way through it!)

Kathy and Jenny had the Crab Cake Salad and...


Kristen and I went in for the House Favorite... Smoked Brisket Enchiladas

Typical Gothic arch and large stone walls


I know I've seen this window treatments in a Frisco model home!


Heavy wood and metal chain
