Kool & The Gang said it best!

 So this is the end of the year. I'll not inject my personal thoughts about our countries situation and instead think positively.



New Years Eve. The holidays are winding down and well, the party just keeps on rolling. Now it's one birthday after another for a few weeks.


Let's go!

My bother in law Dave's birthday is on New Year Eve so we usually do a party for him. Dave wanted steak. So steak is what most of us had.

We tried to get reservations for a few places around the QC ,but most were full up. So Dave decided to head back north to Wapsi Oaks. Wapsi Oaks is a Nine hole golf course just west of Calamus Ia. About a good twenty minute drive for us.

Had to start out with a drink or ten.



Wapsi Oaks's clubhouse.



I had done my usual front loading so I might as well tour the bathroom, right? Right.

Pretty clean although we were there fairly early. 




Alright let's get this party started! Might as well have an Ole Fashioned while Dave is buying.




I must confess. I'm 56 years old. There ain't no partyin all night long for me anymore. I digress.


I'm getting hungry. Let's peruse the menu shall we? Wapsi's New Years menu was fairly small,but that's ok. We came for the steak.



Got to do the salad bar for starters. The usual fixings,but everything was fresh,crisp and tasty.


Obviously today's blog post is not pizza. Steak was what we all came for. We did a blog post about Wapsi Oaks almost two years ago. For a place relatively in the middle of nowhere they do up some righteous steaks and I'm not lying.

My two brothers in law had an 8 oz filet. The wife,nephew and I had the 14 oz New York strip. Everyone's steak came out just as we wanted them too. 

If you want a great steak with a little road trip Wapsi Oaks is well worth the drive.

Better include the steak pic!


Happy Birthday Dave! This post is for you. I couldn't ask for a better brother in law.



Oh yeah I almost forgot the cake pic.


Here's to the end of 2020. Life goes on and more birthdays to come. 

Thank's to all of you that check out our humble little corner of the internet. We hope you enjoy our road trips and visits to the many fine scarfing establishments our area has.
