Lon’s Patio Now Open
The pictures alone make a statement. I could only image the cuisine.
This is how a patio in our beautiful desert should look like…divine! Great pictures, and perfect timing, just as the weather is cooling down…
I love Lon’s, I always forget about it because it’s a bit out of the way…but totally worth it!
A definite date spot. Looks like my wife and I have a new spot to check out . . . .
Looks cozy and sounds great. . . I must try.
I have been to Lons a few times but have never been out on the patio. I must go back and check it out.
