LOL, actually back in the day(showing my age). My neighbor had an arrneson fountain. We would run back and forth from Bajaj Beach club to the Drink. Boat full of whores drunk as skunks. Rooster tails reaching the bridges. Not sure how we survived. Different time growing up in the 80s

Baja Beach club! WOW Blast from the past! LOL that closed and i remember it being some burger joint or restaurant that insulted you or something along those lines...last time i was in that neighborhood it was a pizza joint and Target grocery behind it.
I remember pulling up to docks on a friends boat and the dock hands wanted $50 for an hour! F-THAT! and off we went!

Dicks Last Resort!!!! you are 100% correct, except it was 60.00 an hour to dock. My little cousin was in charge of docking the boats, we got the family discount. Usually put us next to Pippin from the Bulls.
