These last two years on the way to Myrtle we've made pit
stops at Mount Airy, North Carolina to eat dinner and
spend the night. Our visit there this year was so traumatic
we are staying in Lake Norman in Myrtle 2000. BTW,
Mount Airy is what the TV series 'Green Acres' is based
on. How freakin' appropriate!
The worst part was the Pizza Hut. Our waitress (who we
affectionately nicknamed "Meryl" after Cletus's girlfriend)
was a classic specimen. She messed up EVERY ONE of our
orders. When informed of this, she responded, "Uhhh...
yeah, I know. Uhhh, they was s'posed to get ya'll another
one..." Casey's pizza barely had anything on it but
gelatinated cheese. Hardly any sauce. Sam's pizza was
cheese-covered against her requests, and Casey's mom's
pizza was onion covered also against her requests.
People in Mt. Airy have staring disablities. We were
speaking for them and saying "Wooooow, city folk."
These girls our age just stared and stared. It was creepy.
You know you're in Mt. Airy when...
You see a restraunt called "The Hungry Farmer"
There's a huge yard filled with nothing but old
beat up tractors
Instead of 5,000 people with the last name "Smith"
in the phonebook, there's 5,000 people with the last
name "Cockerham"
You see more than 10 signs for Bojangles (a restraunt
famous for their chicken and biscuits)
Well, this is the hotel we stayed at. It had crappy lighting
that made us look like ugly ghosts.
