11/5/10 Isaac Newton’s fun food and drink

11/5/10
danny usually works Friday nights but was off today.
since we were all home we decided to do a
Friday Family Night Dinner.
We agreed to go to Isaac Newton’s —
about 20 ish minutes from Ivyland.
We know from past experience, the food is OK
and the beer selection is phenomenal.
