Mack: Back in 1968, I was on leave from the service and I was legal to have a drink a good friend of mine took me to Feketes man did we have a good time that night.
Mack: Murphy's Chuck Wagon was good and later became The Seafood Shanty, which was a great place to go on Friday nights for drinks and clams on half shell. I don't know whats there now. Maybe Skip knows but he has been silent for over a week. Hope all is Ok.
Hi JoeZ:)
Seafood Shanty was there on the corner in my Wendy's days of the early 1980s:)
