Trip to Jefferson, Texas

We went to a car show in Jefferson, Texas. Lots of cars in an 1850s town on brick streets.

Have you ever had a kornbread sandwich? 3 kinds of cornbread-plain, broccoli and jalapeno.
Several choices for fillings - ham, turkey, pastrami, meatball, etc. I can't figure out how they got the cornbread to not crumble and still be moist and tender.Ice cream at the general store. Everything inside was really old except for the merhandise.Then a tour of the city as seen from the rear of mules. A city of old restored houses - most of which are bed & breakfasts...


and a beautiful old church.

New York

What a miracle! Joe and I went on vacation to New York!
And on top of that, we went with Joe's sister, brother and their spouses.
We all had a wonderful time!

Don't we look happy to be flying to New York. Even though Joe and I only decided to go 6 days before, we were able to fly the same flight as Judy and Charles.

As the taxi driver was taking us from LaGuardia, I knew we were really in New York when I saw this sign.
Judy, Charles, Robert & Peggy stayed in The Crowne Plaza on Times Square. Notice the store right beside it. I can't believe we never went into the store.But we did go into the store across the street - the M&M Store. See all of them on the back wall.
Peggy and Judy are reading the tour book to tell us where to go. Peggy was a great tour guide.


Heather told me before we left that there would be people that would be willing to take our picture. She was right.

More later.
