Hope You Had A Happy Easter!
Saturday brought once again the end to weeks that seem to be getting longer all the time. I really hadn't planned to ride the cycle this Easter Weekend, instead I put in about 5 hours of yard work. I did the whole deal, mowed, edged, swepted, used the leaf blower, hedged and watered. After a little rest time under the patio umbrella, I hit the shower. Then it happen! The call of the road...and off I went. This time I headed north at ended up in a little place called Dade City. In my quest to find the off the wall, people-places-things, I spotted this little tavern called The Osceloa Tavern. It is a two-story house that has been long since converted to a bar.
Inside was odd but interesting. Most of the residential layout was still in tact. Hallways leading to rooms with a bar, another room had tables and a bar and yet another room had a sofa and some easy chairs. In the mist of this was a very tight area for a live band! Whoa...bring earplugs! Then I noticed that there was a "backyard" they called it a courtyard. OK, here is the clincher! Now mind you there entire place has posters, sports stuff, photos all over the walls. BUT...I noticed this one poster and read it and was floored! It was a concert poster for this Friday for a group called "Shoe Sueds Blues" with Peter Tork. Anyone remember him? HINT: "Hey hey we're the Monkee's". Yep, Peter of the Monkee's fame. I got to tell ya, I'm really going to try to take in this concert
