Hey everyone,
Okay, so I haven't blogged in a few days. The Capt has been off and we have been doing things around the house. We had a great few days off. We got the lawn mowed, edged and blown off, mini blinds hung and a new kitchen faucet installed. We also won $500 dollars at the local grocery store. We have had a really great few days.
Scott and I went to Terlingua and picked up his mom to come stay with us. We had hoped she would stay longer than a night, but she got a stomach bug and just wasn't feeling well. We took her home Sunday evening and had dinner with her at Chile Pepper in Terlingua before heading back home. Monday we did the "around the house" things that were needed. Then I went to get groceries, they have this punch card lottery game that gives you an opportunity to win some cash. Every dollar you spend they punch the card, once it is full they scratch off the back and see what you won. The first card I play, we win $500 bucks. GOOD TIMES!
Tuesday we all loaded up and went down to Alpine to meet Mom and her guy friend Jim for lunch at this cute little place called La Trattoria. When I was in Alpine previously, I noticed a little car place that had had fixed up cars. So, I told the guys about it and we headed over there after lunch. I had no idea it was just Mustangs but the guys loved it. The man that owned the place had a Mustang that sells for 135,000 dollars. He also had the Terlingua Racing Team Mustang. It was a very neat little place and we all enjoyed it. I have posted pictures of the little cafe and some of the cars on the blog already.
Wednesday, Capt is back at work, the AC guy is back to fix the back AC so that we aren't melting in the living room. Travis goes home tomorrow, Lindsey is going to Dallas for a few days. It will just be little ole' Connor and me while the Capt works 12 hour days for the next four days.
Have a great week guys. See you all in the desert....:)
