I recently realized that I've lived in Mesquite for 7 years and only have a handful of friends in the city. I've always felt a bit lost being a mid-twenties, liberal in the Rodeo Capital of Texas.

Plus, we all know driving down to Deep Ellum or Greenville or further to have a drink gets old fast. I really wanted to create a place for like-minded people to connect and have a good time closer to home.

So I started a Drinking Liberally chapter here in Mesquite to give all of us a Happy Hour where we can meet new friends and catch up with old ones.

We'll be sharing our first drink this Wednesday, November 13 at JCs Burger Bar (near Mesquite HS) from 6:30-8:30 pm.

We hope to see you there.
