It never rains but it pours. Thast's an old saying for you youngsters. We are trying to see everything and do all the things on our list now, because we will be leaving here in 6 weeks. Now is catch up time.
We made reservations to go to the Grand Canyon the 21st. We will be taking the train from Williams to the Canyon. Grand Canyon Railway We also are going to Laughlin for a few days in April, which we won at the Casino school..
Today we got an invitation to celebratate a fifty wedding anniversary in Texas. Unfortunatly we will not be able to go. But let me tell you what we will be missing. It's going to be, they tell me, a three-day extravaganza. Starting on Thursday a chili fest, on Friday a Gulf Coast Crawfish Boil and Saturday an Anniversary Party and a Texas Barbeque. These Texans know how to throw a party. Of course this New England gal would stick out like a sore thumb at a crawfish boil. I don't think I've ever see a crawfish. Give me a full size lobester anyday. It sound like it will be a great week-end and we are truly sorry to miss it.
All this talk about food, I guess I'll go make up a pot of chowda!

So did ya get the $99.00 deal where ya spend a nite in their motel too? I love riding on the Train! I have traveled several times on the train, it is so much fun.
Hi8 Carol, We started off with the $99 special, but with upgrades and staying a second nite it was a bit higher. Still a good deal. Friends just signed up to go with us. An unexpected surprise. Dawn
hi dawn, bob..sorry you will miss out on the 50th extravaganza...but i know you will find your own adventures...
thanks for visiting my journal - and glad to hear you are taking a cruise too - as always, you both are an inspiration...
Oh too bad. If there's one thing we know in Texas, it's how to have a barbeque! ~Holly
** I am soooo jealous wow what an adventure! I just saw last week on the discovery channel, that taking the train ride to the Grand Canyon is the best way to go! Please take lots of pictures lol. My mom loves that Laughlin to gamble and I hear so much about the place. Hope the two of you WIN BIG!!! *Becky
