March Madness - Day 3 and 4

Today was a little less dramatic. After a late evening chatting with the Young's, we had to get up early for church and deal with the daylight savings loss of sleep. Class was fun with all the young men and women. And service was pretty much right on cue other than the fact that there were over 1200 in attendance. Slightly bigger than we are used to......by maybe 150 times...lol. It was different.

Wrapping up our day and visit with lunch at a Mexican restaurant.....of course, we couldn't leave Texas without! And then leaving the kids.

Long drive across Texas without much to see. Tumbleweed, windmills, cattle, little tiny towns, cactus and long roads without anything else. We decided to push on since we got a later start out of Lubbock and drive past Dallas as far as we could.

Nothing special. I don't like driving....lol.

We stopped the other side of Dallas at just a random place....random as far as we could drive at night sort of place. We were pooped with all the activities of the weekend so rest and sleep was good. A little too good, we should have got up earlier so we could have made it in quicker to New Orleans.

So we hit the road Monday for another long drive. Nothing special about this drive other than the time when a truck pulling a flat bed trailer full of giant canvas bags of pecans. I mean huge bags, like four foot tall and four foot square! No that isn't the exciting part. Half of this giant bag spilled over and scattered all over the highway bouncing back towards us doing 75 mph. Crazy stuff! (Breakout in song, "It's raining men.......I mean pecans, hallelujah, it's raining pecans") okay so maybe not a top ten hit but you get the idea.

Drive drive drive drive and more drive.........tune in to the next episode to find out if our heros make it New Orleans safely, was there more chaos?, what happens on Bourbon Street?.....Will what happens on Bourbon Street stay on Bourbon Street?

And there you have it.
Drive safe my friends!

Et this I believe
