Back from Dallas


Sweet Old Bob (SOB)

We slept very well after a full day at the King Tut exhibit. It surpassed all our expectations. Although I could not take any pictures in the museum I bought some nice pictures that I will scan and share with you tomorrow. Right now I am stretched out on the bed with my faithful friend Smokey beside me. It is a 4 1/2 hour drive up from Dallas but the time passed quickly because we took turns reading a book aloud to each other. One of us reading and the other paying attention to the driving of course.

On the way back we stopped to say hello to our old friend Bob Smith. Bob lived in Tulsa for quite some time and we attended the same church. He was a very loyal friend and was of great help to me before I was married when I had my first cancer surgery. For about 15 years he was a part of the men's prayer group that meets at my house every Monday night. Several years ago he moved to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area to be near one of his daughters and grandchildren. It is the first time we had seen his new home there, which is very nice. I am happy to report that he is doing very well and enjoying his life as a transplanted Texan. Great to see you Bob.
