Mike's Birthday & Sue's Jury Duty

Mike's birthday was the 13th and to celebrate we went to Ay Jalisco here in Sebastian for dinner. Mike ordered the steak Fajita Quesadilla and I had my usual chicken Fajita Quesadilla with a couple of Dos Equis on draft.

The weather forecast was right and we had rain Wednesday night and most of Thursday and Thursday night.
