Descriptive Essay On Ruby's Diner

Improved Essays
Ruby’s Diner Once or twice a year I visit my mother. She lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado with my step-dad. One of my favorite things to do is to go eat at Ruby’s Diner with my mother, Amanda, and step-dad, Roma. After about 7 hours total at the airports and a two hour drive I am extremely hungry, but I am also very excited. For the first day, of my ten day visit, we’re going to one of my favorite restaurants, Ruby’s Diner. It is the heavens of freshly smoked meats.

This way she can help find abused and stray animals caring homes. She has a grey and white Pitbull named Maxuel Creed who is about ninety pounds and a boxer named Blue Jean who is about seventy pounds. Blue and Max both are very cuddly and friendly dogs, especially Max. I couldn’t sit down anywhere without him trying to snuggle up onto my

The speaker’s detailed observation of his apparently indifferent waitress gives way to a romantic fantasy that reveals him to be a lonely man contemplating…
