I bet a lot of bars opened on this day 75 years ago, Don Beach's was just one...
Ummm... huh? That's a surprising comment coming from you. YOU know how it all started with Donn and moved onward from there. I'm not such a stickler for the exact date (although I am curious), but I do find it commendable to take notice of it. If nothing else, it gives us an excuse to mix some drinks hopefully in a way that Donn would approve. So, in his honor, I'm sipping a Luau Grog now. Okay, not a Donn drink, but at least based on one!
FYI, this is also the 75th anniversary of the end of prohibition, that's why I say, there were likely a lot of bars that opened 75 years ago today. But none have had the impact of Ernest Baeumont Ganntt's(sp?) Happy anniversary to our Daddy as The Bum says...
