We cleaned house a little this morning and got things ready for Jack and Mary to come in for a visit. I figure they will be in around 3PM, give or take.
I think they finally made it around 2PM and we had a good visit, catching up on all the happenings. Mary is the person that takes care of the news letter at Seldom Rest Ranch. They are actually from Kewanee IL which isn’t far from our home in Rock Falls and Dixon. They spent the summer up there and Jack was ready to come back to Texas a long time ago but there were people to see and things to do.
About 4:30 we took off and went to Lambert’s. They haven’t ever eaten there before so we figured we would take them. This makes four times this year for me, about three times to many. Food is great but for some reason I always eat to much. Always have stuff to take home for another meal.
Got a couple pictures of Jack and Mary…
We had a great meal and time to talk and watch the guy throw rolls. I think this is the least busy day I have every seen here. They probably do have slow days but the other three times I was here we always had to wait for at least a half hour but that was good because we had time to sit and talk.
Jack and Mary have a killer dog….
That is Harley! He must weigh all of four pounds! Sparky is scared of him, well, Bud, the big black dog also backs away from him! He actually sounds quite ferocious! He is almost twelve years old and doesn’t have many teeth left. He sure gets around though.
We talked them into staying the night with us which is a lot cheaper than staying in a motel! They were going to go on another hundred miles or so but after we got done eating is was almost dark and staying the night worked out pretty good.
Linda and Mary got to watch some bachelor program and I slept through some of it. We actually went to be around 9:30. I haven’t gone to bed that early since I was sick!
Well that is about all for today….Night Y’all….
