John Wayne Visits Tony

John Wayne had been cooped up for most of the winter, guarding the fireplace and living quarters with a knowing eye. But, alas, season's end arrived and he was ready to hit north conway with loads of playful energy and a zest for mischief!!

J.W.'s chaperones, Speed Racer, Spider Pig, Private Dancer, and Danger Boy, went to their new fav pub, the Wild Boar Tavern to have some dinner (awesome!) and say hi to mr. bartender, Tony, and gang. The highly spirited Tony invited the ski gang to his place for a semiformal party later that evening. huh? semiformal?? Ski gang: "Tony, aren't you working here until the bar closes?" Tony: "Yep, the party started without me - just come on over whenever." Ski gang: "We're wearing longsleeve t-shirts and jeans - is it really a semi-formal?!" Tony: "Yes, it is! Don't worry, I have some extra ties you can wear!" hah hah! All true.

There was no question about the decision. John Wayne was rearing and ready to go!! J.W. was super social, working the crowd like no other can. And Tony was a truly gracious host with a good working knowledge of how to party - a nice mix, indeed. Thanks, Tony!
