Imperial Beach - Talking to Strangers



I did not know how this parking trinket worked but Judy did. It was so low tech I could not wrap my head around it. lol.


Ok so how many times were we warned never to talk to Strangers? We drove to Coronado over the bridge and then to Imperial beach. Started off as a quiet scenic day. Suddenly, we heard a guitar, and then another and saw this cute little bar called The Plank. It was warm and sunny inside, had closed walls and an open roof, lots of seats. We were the first two there but that only lasted a short time when the music was playing. This little garage band called Triple Shot played all the music we love from the 70's and 80's. At times they had open mic allowing other singers to join. I tried to get Judy up there but she was having too much fun talking to strangers. So then I did too. Everyone in the bar was very into hearing all about our trip. Apparently we were obviously East Coast girls. Everyone wanted to be in our blog. In the pics are Mike, Guy, Lori and the Diva girls sitting behind us at the table. You might even spot YOKO ONO. lol. Strangers are fun and if you follow the rule never talk to them, you will never know some of the silliest coolest people and their stories. A stranger gave me the shirt off his bar stool becaust it was getting cold and I was freezing. lol. The pictures are just ok since most were taken by the strangers. hehe


This band was so cool and we had a lot of fun. Gotta love those garage bands. Packing up today to the next adventure. Not tired yet!!!

  3. Heather, in the big picture the "not-so-much wall" was miniscule if it exists at all. Our combined energy was so freakishly positive that what might normally have been perceived as lemons was magically spun into lemonade...even the damned speeding ticket...lol! Amazing.
