Travelling Trio

Barb alias Babs and Gale arrived baring gifts.  We went to dinner at Granbury at Babe's the Chicken House.  They serve your choice of a main dish and then serve family style creamed corn, slaw, biscuits, honey, sargum (you know that stuff they make from corn stalks) and homemade pie.  Had to have some coconut. These are the happy eaters. Bob, Gary, Gale, Babs, Sandy Kay, and Bertie.

We got to Weatherford and did not stop going until we arrived in Oklahoma this afternoon. One of the first things we did was go to the "Vintage" restaurant that was in an old auto repair shop.  It housed several old cars and menn Gary abnd Bob with his purse?

One the way we took pictures of an old motel.  It is on the historical registar and I love the old architecture. On March 6, we had our free breakfast at Dennys and headed east towards Las Crues.  We crossed the New Mexico boarder again. I guess someone besides me thought he might need direction? I think this might be Las Crues as we top the hill? We stayed behind a hotel for two nights.  The town had its historical sights too. You can give me new buildings; but I love the old ones that have or tried to survive the years. We left Las Crues NM and headed to Texas.  Several large, stinky feedlots along the Mexican border.  We got a message from our neighbor Janet Haskin that this is where she lived and worked for several years.  Not in the feedlots, she is a pharmacist. Oh, we are getting clos...
