It’s so sunny and warm here…

When we arrived yesterday it was in the 40′s; today we’re expecting the low 80′s.

The Southfork Hotel is okay.  Our room is pretty much like the Adam’s Mark we stayed in on a St. Louis trip 15 years ago, though this hotel ts not that upscale.  It’s fine for u$.  Unfortunately the hotel is remodeling rooms.  We didn’t get one of those…and they are working on one close by.  Ach!

This morning we enjoyed breakfast in our room.  I know what you’re thinking…’Token — spending money on room service?!!’

"Yup!  Because I’M ON VACATION!"

Darling Son and his girlfriend are still living in the same apartment, but in separate bedrooms.  We had supper together last night at a place called On The Border.   It’s good to see her despite their circumstances.

Soon our son will be here with his car and hubby will take him to work so we can keep the car.  We’re going to do at least one outing a day.  Traffic here in Dallas is very frantic and we don’t want too much stress ON OUR VACATION. 

For sure we’re going to visit IKEA (I’ve been wanting to go to one for ages!) and I’m hoping we can go to the Riply’s Museum, too.  They have a science museum I want to visit and a zoo.  We’ll see.

Our biggest surprise was Darling Son’s appearance:

After he saw us settled in our hotel room he went home to shave it off to the goatee we were expecting.  He’d gotten glue in it at work that afternoon so it had to go.
