There’s been a lot of talk about this next year. Maybe, maybe too much talk… WHATEVER! Last year may have sucked for a lot of people; I’m not one of them. Life at the Lu is non-stop! Non-stop fun, non-stop fast, non-stop, non-stop, NON-STOP!!! New Year ’s Eve of ’08 was a great and fun [...]

Another great day at Pete’s for Thanksgiving!
When MOST people think of Thanksgiving, visions of roasted turkey, sweet potatoes and stuffing come to mind.

Next Stop: Cinco de Mayo
It’s been a good week here at the Lu. The weather is beautiful, the days are getting longer and hey–doesn’t a margarita sound good right about now? The Black Tie and Baggies night was, by all accounts, a huge success! The Surfrider Foundation (www.surfrider.org) presents this big night and they had a contest for best [...]
