We checked into a motel 6 last night, we figured all we were doing was sleeping anyway. When I tried to log on and post the blog for Wednesday, I found out I had to Pay 12.00 for the service. I don’t think so, so if you are reading this and haven’t read the post for Wednesday, go back and get filled in on yesterdays adventures.
Last night, we had dinner at the big Texan. There was a guy there trying to eat the big 72 oz. steak. He did pretty good, he ate all but 10 oz of meat. He also had to eat a potato, bread, salad and a shrimp cocktail. Too much food for me. We were told you can now watch them try and eat this meal on a webcam from their site. Oh yeah, and they only have 1 hour to eat all this. Gross. People have done it though.
We had a regular meal, and it was fab. Anyway, we took off this morning for our last leg of the trip. All the roads are open, there is no snow, we should arrive in plenty of time. There is ice on all the trees, and they are breaking limbs and branches, but the visual effect is beautiful. They look like living ice sculptures. There was ice most of the way out of Texas, but just on the side of the road. It really was smooth sailing all the way to Tulsa.
Ok, we learned a very long lesson, don’t try to save by going around the toll roads, it takes to long. That is what we did. We thought it wouldn’t matter that much, but going around the tolls, took us on a long out of the way detour. Next time, we pay the tolls and get here sooner.
So that leads me to where we are right now. Sitting in our final destination, unpacked, with our clothes out of the suitcases and into the drawers. I am sipping the last of my first bottle of wine. We are relaxing, and after I post this, read what you all have been up to, I am layin on the bed and relaxing. Alex took his last test today, passed, and got an A in the class. He missed the Deans list by one A, but as far as I am concerned, he did wonderful. We are very proud of him. Brag brag brag, lablab.
Ok, we are here, and that is it for the day today. See ya all tomorrow.
