On the Way to Eclipse

Eclipse was a small mining town during its hey day. Well mining company building is still standing but becomes a ruin in the half way. It is still very harming and I hope that it can be saved before it is too late. There is hope. Besides a few permanent residents living, it hosts two charming restaurants - Janas and Zoe. Bicycle tail runs from Athens to Nelsonville. Eclipse is one third way of 19 miles from Athens. Now every Friday, we Sammy, my mom and I ride the bikes after work to have a dinner in Janas. Janas is a soul food restaurant. It is still simple and sophisticated , of course hippiesh. We stopped the very first time more than a month ago and had a wonderful brunch. The waitress was nice but we were not able to give a much tip since cash only. I run into her last friday and finally can tip her nicely for her great service and graciousness. This time around that grumpy owner plus cook Janas surely was in good mood. Lime apple pie is just divine as well all the dishes. I guess that is why we love Athens - simple and simply pleasant!
