McGoofy's Honky Tonk Garage

For just about every holiday and non-holiday, relatives and friends from near and far gather in McGoofy's garage. What is so special about McGoofy's Garage? Is it the horrible ventilation, the stench of beer, cigarette smoke, a wood burning stove and a fishing pond? Is it the fridge full of fish guts and fish bait? Maybe the decor that is made up from old magazines and treasures found at flea markets, auctions, garage sales and swap meets. Really, I think these things just add to the atmosphere of McGoofy's Fishin' Shop where nothing is for sale. There is no other place in this world where people from one to 100 anxiously gather to celebrate birthdays, holidays or just celebrate the day from dawn til dusk. In this honky tonk, there are no brawls, you will hear no complaints. You hear laughter, you hear banjo, guitar, singing, drums. You see smiles, you see embraces and you see love. You feel full of life, you feel like dancing...even to an old honky tonk song. This is my family. Making memories in McGoofy's Garage.

You better change the miss to mrs. in your title line. You always bring a tear to my eye, even when you don't mean to get sentimental. McGoofy's Garage is one of kind and so is Chuck.
