Although
the Two RV Gypsies still have their RV, they no longer consider themselves
"Full-Time RVers" due to lack of travel funds. They
really spent a lot of money enjoying life on the road since 2008, and
they have NO regrets. However, from this point on, they will just be taking
occasional RV trips as often as possible, plus a lot of local car adventures.
And this website will continue because their trips are still full of fun,
new places and memories. |

Karen Duquette
and family celebrated her birthday at Tony's Cantina Mexican Grill 652 Herrons Ferry Road, Ste 109 Rock Hill, SC in January 2023 (be sure to see the sign at the bottom of this page) |
|
Lee Duquette always buys Karen Duquette a lobster for her birthday. But since their daughter Renee finds that disgusting, family is not included for this event. (no photos were taken of the lobster this year).A few days later, Karen Duquette's daughter and son-in-law treated everyone to a birthday dinner for Karen. Her daughter gave her a funky hat with blinking lights on it as her birthday present, so of course, she wore it while in the restaurant. It was her only birthday present this year, which is OK by her, because she can not put much stuff in her RV. She is not used to receiving presents anyway, and really does not need a lot of stuff. |

Below: Karen Duquette posed with two tall ladies standing near their table because they all had interesting hats on. |

Below: Some of Karen Duquette's family members and the interesting lights hanging from the ceiling in the restaurant. Not all family members were photographed by Lee Duquette on this date. Nobody else took photos, but John did take a video of the singing, but Karen does not know how to post it here. (any help out there ???) |

Below: Food |

Below: Then some of the workers came by singing and clapping as they put a beautiful Mexican hat on Karen Duquette's head. They also gave her a terrible desert for her birthday. It was like eating a cracker. |
|
Below: The server took back the Mexican hat and put it on another lady's head as they sang Happy Birthday to the other lady. So Karen Duquette put her original blinking hat back on and the two birthday gals posed for a picture together. |

Everybody was happy with their food on this date. However the two RV Gypsies returned here on another date, and Karen Duquette's meal was BURNED. So she sent it back to the kitchen. The server asked if she wanted something else, so of course she ordered something else. When the bill came, BOTH of her meals were on the check, even though she had only taken one bite out of the burned chicken before she realized it was inedible. When the check came, Lee Duquette questioned why both meals were on the bill. The server said, "Did you read the posted sign at the front desk and in the back of the room?" Karen walked to the front desk and there was NO sign at the front desk NOR on the entry door. But she did find one on the wall in the very BACK of the restaurant, and it is posted below as a WARMING to anyone eating at Tony's. Lesson learned! Of course, Lee and Karen Duquette will NEVER eat here, and will not recommend this restaurant to anyone. |
