My wife and I are planning a road trip. We plan to leave NC on Wednesday the 8th and drive to Nashville, TN. From there we are going to Tulsa, OK to visit one of my wife’s favorite needlework shops. While she is in there, I will be hawking the local stores for BBQ supplies, like Head Country BBQ sauce. From there we will drive to Amarillo, TX and then on to Lubbock. Another needlework stop plus the Buddy Holly statue. From there we will drive to Austin and spend severals days with Navy friends and possibly my wife’s cousin. Next stop will be San Antonio to visit our “second son” and his family. During high school he ate as many meals at our house as he did at home. From San Antonio we will head to Houston and Galveston for several days. Several more needlework stores for my wife to visit. From there we hope to drive across toward Mobile and do some sightseeing along the way. We haven’t figured out what route we will be taking home, yet.
While we are in Austin I plan to visit a few of the local well-known eateries. When we get to Houston we will hook-up with Don (IR2dum) to see some of the local sights and, of course, eat lots of food. While in Houston I hope to be able to meet a few of the LTBBQ members on day at lunch. Don will be coordinating this mini-get together. Please let me know who will be there.
This whole trip may change due to some of the crazy weather we have seen recently. I’ll have to let you know if the trip changes. For now, all is a go.
If there are any forum members on our planned route, let me know and maybe we can get together for a chance to meet and greet.
