Fun with White Stuff

For most of the snow days, we were holed up tight in our houses,

drinking with neighbors, not showering, and being pretty useless.

Then, the boredom set in and someone needed cigarettes.

We walked up to 39th Street, hit up World of Spirits

and it all went downhill from there.

These are some of the things we saw, from our windows and out and about.

What did you guys do during your snow days?

Gilhouly's

Years of Industry Service: 13

----------------------------------------------------

Emily has a distinctive raspiness to her voice, one that makes you go, I think I know her. She used to work at Rancho Grande but after getting a tip from her Budweiser rep about an opening at Gilhouly's, she applied with her name and number on a sticky note. "That's how high class this place is." After six years at Gilhouly's, Emily has seniority and the schedule to prove it, 2 night shifts, 2 day shifts and Saturday, Sunday and Mondays off. Which is perfect since she likes to go out of town a lot. Emily says that although the day and night crowd at the bar are totally different, Gilhouly's has quite a colorful cast of regulars regardless of the time of day.

***Special Note***

The last picture is a snapshot of Gilhouly's from years ago that Emily shared with us.

Now a favorite neighborhood dive bar, Gilhouly's was once a pharmacy.
