    I toasted some pecans today for Gene (since they were bothering me the last time I ate them) and found myself nibbling them. I think I found a new "island" food! Guess I'd have to toast them in the sun!

When company comes...

at 12/19/12 6:05PM
I like to do something they will remember.

This time, it was a colossal sandstorm.

After my doctor's appointment in Lubbock (yes, company got to go there with us, too), we went to Cracker Barrel for lunch. Our company had their backs to the windows, while Jimmy and I were facing the windows. There was a CVS store across the street. The dirt got worse and worse the longer we sat there, until finally there were times when the CVS all but disappeared. We drove around Lubbock to show them The Sights...namely, Texas Tech, and the Buddy Holly statue. Neither of those was very impressive in a sandstorm, either.

Then we drove home. UGH!! There are many good reasons for living in west Texas, but sandstorms is not one of them. Tumbleweeds by the dozens crossed our path, and a few times visibility was next to nothing. But we made it back to Seminole in time to stop at Gaines County Farm Supply for the company to pick up several jars of fresh ground peanut butter.

Good times!
  • frances
    Sherelyn and I were just discussing the sandstorm while ago. Thankful you made it back home without mishap. Glad you could spend time together with your company, even though it consisted of scenery of West TX dust and tumbleweeds.

  • squeaky
    That does sound interesting. But now I have that tune with the tumbiling tumble weeds rolling around in my head. Thanks.
    by squeaky at 12/19/12 11:41PM
  • milly
    OK, Squeaky. Now *I* have it in *my* head!!!

    Your company is 4.5 hours down the road already. We left at 3:23 and it was 25 degrees. I had a lump in my stomach of sadness at leaving. Thank you for such a great time!!

    me too I can just hear Berl Ives singing it on our record player.

  • sirtarin
    You had a sandstorm, we had a blizzard. :)

    We have the tumbling weeds song somewhere on one of our CD's around here.

    When my stepson lived in El Paso TX I saw my first tumbleweed in their backyard. And with the wind blowing it just tumbled right along. It can get pretty windy here in FL too. And this morning it was a cold 34 degrees....at least cold for here. Thankfully it warms up nicely during the day.

    I think there has been a LOT of topsoil rearranging in West Texas the last week or so...
