Conley's Mystery Cruise 2004

Saturday, June 12th, 2004, was the date set for the Conley's Mystery Cruise. Just days before the cruise, Charlie and Ginger gave instructions to our members to be at Lowe's, Saturday, at high noon. Also, "Don't eat lunch!"

Our gracious hosts met over 20 of us and proceeded to "who knows where?" After driving South on Grissom, we finally rounded the corner of Clearlake Road and turned into the Whole Loaf Pizza and Pasta Mission. This little non-profit restaurant is tucked away in the end of a Jewish/Christian (?) Church Synagogue. Sounds confusing? Well, without getting into that, this little restaurant is one of the best kept secrets in the North Brevard area. Most of the staff is volunteer. But, these volunteers are dedicated to their community by providing much needed restaurant training to those underprivileged that would never have such an opportunity. Most importantly, they're dedicated to providing good food at a good price. Ginger and Charlie selected a combination of baked ziti and lasagna for us all. Included with our lunch entree was salad and those great tasting garlic knots. The food was great and plentiful. After lunch, we all piled back into our rides and followed Rip in his Galaxie convertible over to River Drive. This six mile stretch of road that meanders through "old Florida" was a great drive. Lots of scenery with no traffic hassles. We eventually came onto US 1 where we all dispersed in our different directions back home. Again, Ginger and Charlie, thanks for the great time. Our club MUST do this again, right?
