Typical style, at least Tammy style, just a tad late leaving but good ole Lucy helped get us on the right road after stopping for our hydration quota of XLarge Sweet Tea at Chick-Fil-A, it just might be the last of the best sweet tea we get in a long time! Took a while for Lucy to get with the game and to see how we flow. Once we realize it wasn't about her gettin with our flow but the other way around we gave up on sticking her to the window where she kept falling every 5 mins. We quite putting her on the dashboard where with each turn she slide across.We put her in a cock=eye position between the window and the dashboard and guess what she finally stayed and was such a true help to us. We love our Lucy. Did you know that you can travel from the south of Texas to the top of the Panhandle without Sirius. This was news to me. We had Sirius in the car but funny to say the only channel it would pick up was the Weather Station, hmmmmm you can only hear that so long..so on regular stations you can pick them up all over just be ready because when they stop you better have another ready to go. Leaving Katy we left listening to the awesome 89.3. praising Jesus till we got to Hillsboro which the station went dead - quickly we found 94.9 coming out of South Lake Caroll. hmmm another Christian station and I might say a pretty good one! Coming up on the Armadillo Grill at the exit to Bowie Road 94.9 fizzled. 94.5 came in strong. "Where da daddy at" over the hill - it's gone. Up the next hill 94.9 Country, The Outlaw. Pretty good radio station I must say. Just as we were singing some of the songs, we saw in the middle of no where, in the boonies, a free standing Adult Movie Store - WHAT? that was a surprise. Made a joke about it and both of us saw a bill board quickly after with the word PORNOGRAPHY and some items under it. My first impression was "Wow that is alot of porn around here" then we both realize that the board is against the pornagraphy. I saw the "victimized" on it, while Bridget saw the picture of Jesus carrying the cross. Neither one of us saw what the other one saw. What does that say about us...
Can I just say Stuckey's and 7 Eleven do not mix. Buccee's it does not make. And when 7 women have to wait in line one at a time to use the restroom find anothere pit stop! Exit 369 outside of Wichita Falls, just keep going to the next gas station to make a pit stop.
Arriving in Amarrillo, a must is going to The Big Texan, fun for all! With a store and a fudge bar it will rival a Buccees, then add a steak house and it becomes more than Buccees. Fun place to go with friends, family, groups. Bridget just had to have her picture taken all over the place. Be looking for those pictures! She wanted to eat the big 72 oz steak with all the trimmings but I held her back. You have a special place to sit in front of everyone, your table up on a platform in the center of the room for all to see.You must eat all 72 ozs plus ALL the sides to get yours free plus bragging rights plus be on their web. She so wanted the bragging rights. But if you don't eat all items you have to pay $72 and walk the walk of shame leaving. I could not let her do that. That walk of shame is tough to get over. We settled on the chicken fried steak sandwiches, french fries and a wonderful fresh salad! Oh yeah SWEET TEA! (not as good as Chick fil a though) At 9:00pm it was packed and still light outside as if it was only 7:00pm. Service was wonderful, very attentive. The live Country Music was a nice added benefit!
Arrived to the hotel, and surprised by the wonderfully awesome breeze. It feels great here. We are so exhausted and are now going to bed resting up for our huge day tomorrow. Looking forward to it! Out for now and we will talk to you tomorrow. Pray for us to have a safe journey!
