It was The Hired Hand Saloon. I started flying for PHI in 1980 and drove past it once every week on Wed going to my base when I flew out of Grand Isle and a week later driving home. I wanted to go in but didn't have the time to stop. That changed in 1982 when I asked for a divorce and met the lady who would become my 40 year partner, love of my life, and wife. After dates that included her children for a couple months she wanted an adult, so we want to the Hired Hand. An amazing place! There were three level with bars and food. About 10 bars on the main floor, with a dance floor that would hold a Marine Battalion at lest. With about 5 bars on the second level and 2 on the third level.
She told me years later that she fell in love with me while we were dancing to Ann Murray singing "Could I Have This Dance." Carolyn taught me the meaning of True Love. Spiritual Love mixed with Physical Passion. Forty years and it really started there.
