Remember the creation of Docos Tacos, the specially prepared Mexican food by a nice man named “Eddie.” Eddie’s stand was directly to the left as you entered Greasewood Flat – a waiting line was ever-present, and the food was great.

Nancy and Dave Wells were sitting at one of the famous Greasewood fires made by no other than Stan Carkin, the Mayor of Greasewood Flat. The fire was close to the outside bar with bartender Ron Boring being continuously paged. Docos Tacos was new, but you could already tell it was going to be a success when Bev Oglesby made this classic statement,

“I knew that Docos Tacos was going to be successful. EVERYTHING DOC TOUCHES TURNS TO GOLD.”
