Originally Posted By Darkbeer First off, yes, the Cove Bar is still open... had a drink there yesterday. It is basically open on any day that DCA closes at 8 PM or later. Alas, the Cove Bar does NOT offer a Happy Hour. Full Price all day, every day.... I mentioned a bar at Anaheim GardenWalk with a great happy hour.... (Bar Louie)... Sigh, spent about 2 hours there yesterday, but not at the bar... Lisa had me "shopping" instead.... (But I got a new pair of Skecthers

Now we just need to find out what Catal means and we will be victorious. I like acronym better.
