the years. Bob Evans might be on that route, since
it's been taken over by the Red Lobster people.

That's the one we ate at some years ago with Steve's parents when we
were in town for a memorial service over in McClure. Steve's
siblings/spouses went to Hoss's but we walked over to BE from the motel.

I'd have been happy at Hoss's, too, with its
reasonably priced meat-heavy menu. I believe
that it's rural mid-Atlantic only, and I haven't
seen one in decades.

Skeeter's BBQ, up on the hill overlooking the river,
where the food was pretty decent, but I'm told can
be variable.

Steve and I have had a basic lunch there a couple of times. Good, not
great, but better than some places we've had bbq.

Hi Michael,

The last Bob Evans I saw was in Shamokin Dam, but

That's the one we ate at some years ago with Steve's parents when we were in town for a memorial service over in McClure. Steve's siblings/spouses went to Hoss's but we walked over to BE from the

motel.

I'd have been happy at Hoss's, too, with its
reasonably priced meat-heavy menu. I believe
that it's rural mid-Atlantic only, and I haven't
seen one in decades.

They're still around in central PA last that I knew. We stopped at one
(with some friends) on our way home (McClure) from State College 5 years
ago. The camp Steve worked at one summer mentions Hoss's for fund
raising events in their newsletters so they seem to be going strong in
that area.

we didn't eat there, because we were on our way to
Skeeter's BBQ, up on the hill overlooking the river,
where the food was pretty decent, but I'm told can
be variable.

Definately! They don't have the eastern NC bbq, as to be expected, but
they're still worth stopping at. Beats a McD's burger any day of the
week. (G)

I'm not sure how mine is built (Steve could tell you the specs.) but
it's a nice little one. I've had it about a year, got it on close out at
Sam's.

I'd probably not been up for another big meal the

We didn't have too much at C-F-A, just some strips and salad. The
Mexican supper was a big meal, and tasted good. I asked if we could get
some fried flour tortilla chips for Steve when the waiter came out with
the usual corn chips and salsa--he was very willing to accomodate the
request.
