Happy Hour
By Tiffany Weatherman
The term “happy hour” may have been created by the U.S. Navy to describe a designated period of time for entertainment and refreshment. However, happy hour has long since become a common catchphrase. Men and women around the globe know it as a time to unwind after a hard day’s work. The key to mastering this experience is finding just the right location to fit your fancy.
