The weekend threatened rain every day, but the good Lord provided again for us and we never got wet! We headed to McKinney Thursday about noon with the motorcycle in a trailer, just in case though. My back decided to go haywire, so I ate a bite of lunch, took some Advil and a little "medicine" from my flask for the four hour drive. By the time we arrived at Curt and Lisa's, I was feeling a bit better... ;) We had to leave pretty quick to go pick Curt up at work and head to the concert. Ate sandwiches in the car and got there just in time to get a beer, find our seats and start to listen to a very good concert! Joe Walsh and Bad Company both sounded really good and they played a lot of songs that I wanted to hear. Tailgated afterwards while waiting for the traffic to clear and then headed back to McKinney. Of course, after the long day and many beers I had, I slept all the way back to the house and then, thankfully, got a good nights sleep. The ibuprofen had taken effect by Friday morning and my back was beginning to feel much better. I just kept taking three every four hours and made it through the whole weekend! Kenneth and I got up Friday morning and headed out on the bike for the Old West Café for breakfast, on to the Harley shop in Sherman and rode for a bit longer to let Curt and Lisa finish working. The guys washed the bikes when we got back and then we headed out to meet up with Doug and Dawn and Jorge and Sylvia for a ride and dinner at Daddy Rex's Twisted BBQ. Then on to Buffalo Wild Wings for drinks and then head home. Saturday morning we headed out for Leighton's Gift Charity Ride. This was the 4th year and they are raising money to put cameras in all the area NICUs. This sweet little family lost Leighton and are making sure to honor her. The ride took us to Loose Wheels for a break and a fabulous Bloody Mary! Back to the Salina Park for In-N-Out Burgers and a raffle drawing where Kenneth and I were really lucky! We won an Auto Zone basket and a smoker with all the supplies. Someone dropped it off at the house for us since we couldn't really carry that on the bike. The weather was beautiful so we went for another ride and ended up at Big Slick's Bar and Grill for a couple of beers and shopped around the square a bit. Headed home to change clothes and leave the bikes behind to go to dinner and watch the Texas Rangers game back at Buffalo Wild Wings and on to Hank's for a party for a friend of Curt and Lisa's. Sunday morning we headed out for one more ride. Stopped for breakfast first at Bill Smith's Café, rode for a couple of hours and got home to load up and head back to Louisiana. It was a busy, fun weekend - so thankful for our Texas friends! Love spending time with them every chance we get.
