Flight Canceled.  Yes, our flight from New York City to Dallas, Texas was canceled.  Not because of the weather in New York City, but because Dallas, Texas was experiencing a deep freeze.  Not only was the flight canceled, but we were then told we could not get a flight out until Wednesday – three days […]

There are billboards on the roads of Dallas town advertising the current exhibit of Modern Masters at the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth.  I had mentioned to Ever-Lovin’ that I would like to go.  When dear lifelong friend Jorene invited me to join her for a morning at the museum, I jumped at the […]

2:00 – Tour the White Deer Land Museum Remember the Pampa High School Class of ’63 Reunion?  On the program was listed the tour of the White Deer Land Museum.  “Might as well go”.  So we did, and were we surprised – amazed – and educated.  Even Ever-Lovin’ said he learned something about his hometown.

As they say, I was “choppin’ at the bit” to go to the new George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum.  All the who’s who’s had come and gone.  Now it was our turn. The day did not begin well.  After we left the house, I realized my pants were blue and my shirt was […]

We lived in Dallas County many many years, and had never visited the Sixth Floor Museum – a museum that chronicles the life, the assassination and the legacy of President John F.

How wonderful to have some more time to visit in and around Taos.  Okay, I am beginning to feel like I am forcing you to see my vacation pictures.  If you go to Taos, just know that The Mrs. knew where to take us. This is the Rio Grande Gorge about 10 miles northwest of […]
