Ever-Lovin’ and I appear to feel an obligation to check out the Texas Safety Rest Areas. Ever since Super Sister’s husband Paul told me about them, we have been hooked on visiting these mini-museums.

2:00 – Tour the White Deer Land Museum Remember the Pampa High School Class of ’63 Reunion? On the program was listed the tour of the White Deer Land Museum. “Might as well go”.

Ever-Lovin’ had his 50th Pampa (Texas) High School class reunion. “We’re the class of ’63. We’re the best there’ll ever be.” Was the chant throughout the weekend. And I must admit.

More fun began when Jorene and I hit the streets of downtown Weatherford. I was shocked how many shops there were. Basically we shopped York and Main Streets which are side streets to the square. First stop was in a most unusual boutique called Something Special. Sherry O’ creates hand painted shirts (she is wearing […]
Weatherford, Texas was on my list of “Places to Visit.” The main reason Weatherford was on the “Places to Visit” list was because it is the hometown of my dear sweet friend Jorene. Jorene and I have been friends since Sunbeams. We were baptized on the same day (She went first because I was a […]
As we crossed over the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge that connects downtown Dallas, Texas with Singleton Boulevard in West Dallas, we noticed a retro style diner named Hots – as in hotdogs. (Note to self – that might be a good place to visit.) The building was cute and the parking lot was full. Then… […]
