Arrived in Mt Pleasant just in time to get this much of a real pretty sunset
This morning Sherri was up at 5:30. I was laying there in a comma trying to put together my location. I finally realized that I was in a motel room in Lewisville Texas and we have to get up and get ready to go to my daughter’s house to help her put together a bed and hang some curtains.
We have to drive back to Mt Pleasant this afternoon as soon as we get through with helping Janet. We arrived there about 10:30 and after waiting for a car to show up at the gate…You see this is a gated community and we had no way to get in the gate without riding in behind a card carrying resident. We finally caught one coming in so we burned rubber up behind them and made it just past the gate before it closed.
Janet was not home from work yet but the baby setter let us in and she left us in charge of the kids. We told her good-bye and took over the baby sitting job. The kids were glad to see us and we were glad to see them. We had fun playing with them and then Janet arrived. By that time Sherri and I were hungry so we took Janet’s car to go and get some food for everyone. We had to stop by Wally World before we ate. We needed some grocery supplies and Sherri wanted to pick up a light weight jacket. Kris talked me into buying him some hand cuffs. Yes…hand cuffs! His Aunt Jennifer is a law officer and she has hand cuffs and he wants to be a policeman too.
Kris is ready to do some arresting.
We left there and went to Wataburger to get some food and while there Kris hand cuffed his Maw Maw. He had everyone in the restaurant laughing and Sherri was a little afraid that she would not be able to get out of them. I will have to say it was quite funny. I would have left her there but Kris let her go before we had to leave.
We got back to the apartment and I got started on the things Janet needed done. I put together a bed and hung some curtains. She was real happy getting that all done and I was more than happy to help her out.
We got it all done by 4:00 and I figured it would take us 2 hours to get to our motel. Sure nuff we left and at 6:00 we arrived at the motel and got checked in. We got the same room back that we had the week before. We liked it so much we felt good about getting back to it. This is now our home for the week. Your correct when you say that not much is going to be going on in this journal this week. I have a tuff time making interesting journal entries when we are working 10 hours a day. I will try to find some tid bit of information that will keep you on the edge of your seat…

Wonderful photos Joe and how much Kris has grown... The handcuffs were really funny! I also read the post from the rally and YES we love going to them too!!! Loved the 45 footer but we are not ever trading... (not that I wouldn't love one) but we don't need the added expenses... Would rather spend my money on food & fun!!! ;-D
Have fun & travel safe!!!

I'm guessing you and Sherri could have some fun with those handcuffs....just a thought.
Hi We were in your neck of the woods this PM. Would have called but we had MIL on board. Think we saw your Dodge Dually parked in front of Motel. Are you staying in the one close to WalMart and Chilies???
