May 6 Breakfast
What a beautiful day to be at Mama D's in Freedom. Twenty members gathered with their corvettes or tin cars for a new breakfast location. We arrived just before 9:00am to a full house of other family parties. Thinking we would have to wait for service was a non-issue. Needed to add more tables twice to our group. Owner Donna Wall and waitress, Lisa, took all our orders by 9:05am with continuous refills of coffee. With the menu having a wide selection of items, everyone commented the food was delicious. Some portions large enough that a number of members could even take some home. Lively conversations all around with the warmth of friends being together. Thanks to all who attended.
Hosts: Gary & Jean Brandt
April 24 Breakfast
