![]() She surfaces quickly for a catch of breath, then slips down again to wave and smile in the few seconds she has before needing more air. We push past the crowd and settle into two turquoise seats right at the main bar – prime seating in front of the two windows that look into the pool where a goggled mermaid finally swims by, long hair and colour-coordinated tail floating behind her. Her rendition of Sweet Caroline gets the entire bar singing. We can barely spot her – her tiny stature, combined with the tall bar (and even taller guests) make it nearly impossible – but her voice carries through the bar. Many have gathered around the pleather-padded seating area that encloses Piano Pat Spoonheim and her key-boards. It’s packed with patrons, sipping American beer and blue cocktails. It all looks as if it hasn’t changed since the 1960s. The ceiling is a faux thatched roof pleather banquettes ring the edge of the small establishment filled with fake flowers and Christmas lights, mermaid-inspired plaques and statues. ![]() The bored-looking bouncer checks our ID and wraps our wrists in bright yellow bands with Sip & Dip Lounge, Great Falls, MT, written on them. So we booked our hotel online, made a six-hour playlist for the iPod (a key factor for song choice were ones we could belt out as we made the trip) and, passports in hand, headed for the border.Īny expectations I have are challenged as we get out of the taxi at the O’Haire Motor Inn on a rooftop parking lot in front of a non-descript door, surrounded by a handful of smokers. My friend, Kirsten, who flew out from Victoria for an extra long weekend, was game. But somewhere along the way, the idea of seeing the mermaids swim at the Sip n’ Dip took root and was at the back of my mind when I’ve thought about heading stateside for a road trip and cross-border shopping. Mostly, I have associated Great Falls with a Target and being the site of one-time Lethbridge alderman Dar Heatherington’s faked disappearance from the Montana city, which grabbed international headlines. I can’t remember who told me about the mermaids or when. It’s a distinction the bar remains proud of, noting it on its website. But mostly we have come for the Sip n’ Dip Lounge at the O’Haire Motor Inn – a tiki-themed bar where mermaids swim most nights as patrons sip their themed drinks.Īlmost a decade ago, GQ named the Sip n’ Dip it’s top pick for bars worth flying for. ![]() We have come to Great Falls partly for a chance to get out of town and do a little shopping. And that moment solidifies the oddness of the trip we’re on. Jesus bought a round of shots as one of the mermaids swam by, her slightly diaphanous tail rippling in the aquamarine water. Until then, here’s a trip I took in the spring. Watch for posts on that soon - I promise. But, wow, what a whirlwind few months: busy summer, wedding in San Francisco (um, not mine, in case you were wondering) and then almost a month traveling through Italy, France and Morocco. ![]() So, Bedrock it was, and we had a fantastic time together - I've only seen him twice in the past ten years now, and he's one of my very best friends. (Please note the "Where Are The Best Pool Halls in the DC Area?" in the Help Needed thread, and answer if you know of any, despite the immediate situation having been solved.) There's no powder allowed on the tables at Bedrock Billiards, and I think that's a good thing since it keeps things clean. This does not make for quality billiards at any level. He's tough, and I can only hang with him if I've been playing I haven't played since I last saw him several years ago - before that, it had probably been a good five years. Well, I played my old nemesis, in town from the Hamptons, just before he left for Union Station, and got my ass handed to me, 9-4 (nine-ball). There's no food, but there are pretzels to stave off hunger. No matter, the tables at Bedrock are superior, and so is the beer. Yeah, at 1 PM, the best answer was driving into the shitstorm known as the Marine Corps Hurricane, and heading up Rock Creek Parkway, and over on Calvert Road to Bedrock Billiards - this despite having no idea if roads would be closed (Continental was closed, and so was half of Rosslyn). And she's been dead for twenty years!"īedrock! With a to go burger from black squirrel. "My grandmother could finish this sequence blindfolded. Our conversations now went something like this: Either way, the game ends after this turn. ![]() If the challenger successfully runs the table, he wins if not, he loses. If not, he loses.Ģ) Pass the challenge back to the challenger, who now becomes the shooter. It's so simple it's beautiful: Whenever the person not shooting feels that the shooter should run out what's left on the table, he's entitled to call "Win or Suck." At that point, the shooter has two options:ġ) Accept the challenge and try to run the table. A third-grader could finish this game! I can't believe you have such an easy run ahead of you!" It had gotten to the point where we were ready to kill each other, so rather than come to blows, we invented a new rule: "Win or Suck." Basically, it devolved into "win at all costs," or more accurately, "don't lose to this chump under any circumstances." Nine ball was our game of choice, so naturally when there were just a few balls left on the table, the person not shooting would start jawing, trying to ratchet up the pressure and make the shooter choke. ![]() A buddy of mine and I had a pretty intense rivalry going. ![]() Paths to a Cool RoofĬool roofing products usually cost no more than comparable conventional roofing products. There are cool options for nearly all types of roof coverings. There are many types of roof systems available, but the surface solar reflectance of the roofing product-the outermost layer of the roof exposed to the sun is, also known as the roof covering-determines whether the roof is cool or not. Help offset global warming by reflecting more sunlight to outer space.Decrease power plant emissions by reducing the demand for energy to cool buildings.Reduce peak electricity demand, which can help prevent power outages.Slow the formation of smog from air pollutants, which are temperature-dependent, by cooling the outside air.Lower local outside air temperatures, thereby lessening the urban heat island effect.That is, absorbing less sunlight at the roof reduces heat conduction into the building, increasing the need for mechanical heating in winter. Beyond the building itself, cool roofs can also benefit the environment, especially when many buildings in a community have them. Decreasing roof temperature, which may extend roof service lifeĬool roofs can also incur a winter heating penalty. ![]()
