I am just home from a long weekend in Texas, visiting son Gabe. It rained the whole time I was there but was still a great time.
|
We found a fun way to spend a rainy day together, playing Scrabble at a coffee house. I won't say who won but it was me. |
|
I also squeezed in a visit with a couple of my cousins in the area. This is cousin Judy Neal Johannasen. Just today, she welcomes twin Grandbabies!!! |
|
Gabe lives in the Dallas suburb of McKinney which has a historic downtown shopping area. I met this styling old gal at one of the shops. |
|
Gabe's girlfriend, Brooke, gave me a tour of the Gammill Long Arm store where she works. This is the warehouse of thread. |
|
This is the purple long arm machine I have been posting pictures of, also from the shop where Brooke works.
She and I also enjoyed pedicures and lunch while Gabe was at work. |
Friday evening, in spite of several 30 minute delays for lightening, I got to watch Gabe's team win. It was a fun get away, especially since I redeemed myself by getting to the right airport this time!

If you go back to Dallas in the spring, there is a really good Impressionist art exhibit then.

One of her paintings is usually at the Art Institute in Chicago and it is one of my favourites to look at every time I go visit.
