Arkansas catch up! Buccee's and the Big Texan. Joe's chair :)

We left for Arkansas on the 15th of October. We've done this trip so many times I really didn't take any pictures. We stayed in Williams, AZ, Tucumcari, NM and then in Eufaula, OK. We pulled into Bryan and Cheryl's place around 1230 on Saturday. 
Bryan had his first fire of the season while we were
there! 

Cheryl's flowers were so pretty.  A thunder, lightening storm
beat them down one night. 



Hugs all around and visiting and then my sister Wendy came over a few hours later and we had a great dinner together. 

Sunday, we all hung out and just enjoyed ourselves together. 
Tuesday, Ken left for Tennessee for a short visit with his brother Don and his wife Dana. I stayed behind as it was going to be a short visit in Arkansas. 

Wendy, Cheryl and I went shopping at the thrift store and then downtown to check out what they had to offer and then we met Bryan at the Smokehouse for lunch. 

A few days consisted of some thrift shopping and visiting and another lunch out.   Ken got back on Thursday afternoon. 
Raider, ready for bed 

Daisy and the cat...

My oldest baby boy and me πŸ’—




Saturday morning we pulled out about 1030. Our plan is to be back in April 2026. 

We headed for Henryetta, OK that night. A pretty short drive. 
My favorite place at Bryan's ..his front porch..

Had an awesome mexican linner here before we checked into
the motel. 



Sunday we headed for Amarillo, TX and a visit to Buccees. We had dinner at The Big Texan! Kind of a staple for us when we're in the area. Oh so YUMMY! 
We drove through Clarksville on the way from Bryan's to Texas.
As kids Daddy would pic us up from school and get us 
ice cream from the Diamond Drive IN still there over 
60 years later!! 



Stole from FB after Russell and Lori got back from their trip 
to the beach. πŸ’–

Allissa sent me this of one of my very favorite couples πŸ’– They
were on their way to church. Jacob left on Monday for a month on the big
ship! πŸ’™

Have too when you're in Amarillo! 

Amazing place for a gas station LOL. Like a mini mall! 


Great drinks before great food! πŸ’—


Our original plan was to stay the night in Amarillo, but by the time we were done it was too early to check into a hotel. So off to Tucumcari we went. 

Monday night we were in Gunnison, Colorado. 

Tonight we're in Delta, Utah. Yeah, we're trekking it home. 

Got a party on Saturday, blood work Friday and grocery shopping. Looking forward to next week and slowing down. πŸ˜€ Then it's time for Thanksgiving. 😱
Some of my favorite boys πŸ’™Michael, Ken, me, Russell and Mason. 

When our neighbor Joe lived next door this was his chair.He
 and family moved to Alaska over 4 years ago.  
If the grandkids were here and he came to visit, they'd get
 up and sit elsewhere. We were at the Candy Dance, end of 
September so Ken got this sign made. It will forever be 
Joe's chair! πŸ’— (even if it's a different chair) LOL. 


Anyway a quick catch up but a wonderful time in Arkansas! 

Thanks for checking in... Have a wonderful night!!
