That's only word I can find to describe tonight's adventures. Okay, I'll come clean. I'm in Gainesville, Texas, just south of Thackerville, Oklahoma because Thackerville is home to the Winstar Casino. And although probably best known for hosting a televised poker tournament, they hosted the Oak Ridge Boys tonight. Yep, leave it to me to travel several hundred miles to see the Oaks. But hey everyone needs a vice and this one isn't illegal, immoral or fattening!!
And since I basically did nothing for spring break I figured I deserved a treat. Besides, I haven't seen the Boys since January in Galveston and I really had no concrete plans to see them again till next January in Galveston. So, off to Gainesville/Thackerville I go! And I'm so glad I did because the show was absolutely incredible!
I finally got away this morning about 9:30a--which was about 30 minutes later than I really wanted to. I pulled into Gainesville and my hotel about 3p so I actually made decent time. Despite the nasty, cloudy, grey skies I avoided any rain. When I left the temp was very warm and the humid was stiffling. By the time I got to College Station I was freezing. My crop pants and sleeveless shirt turned out to be a bad idea. This first thing I had to do after checking in was to change into jeans and another shirt before venturing out. It may be a good thing I brought some extra things!
So I digress. The show was wonderful and in the morning I head back to reality with a stop in College Station to pick up the new computer!! Oh and maybe a stop in Fort Worth for some Riscky's BBQ!
