Fun Saturday

GREETINGS!

Tom and Mary wanted to go check out the possibility of joining Sam's Club, so the four of us hopped in my van and away we went to Fort Smith, Arkansas Saturday afternoon. We found Sam's Club and they joined, and then of course we all had to look around at all the stuff. We by no means covered "all the stuff", but sure covered the grocery end of it. I have not been in a Costco or anything similar for 12 years, and couldn't believe how alike the two places are. Both in layout and congestion! :)

I bought a 2 lb bag of arabica coffee and 2 big bottles of KC BBQ sauce. Wasn't planning on grocery shopping, so that was it. And don't you know, as much as I love arabica coffee, I don't like what I bought!! I'll stick with 8 O'clock arabica coffee. Oh well. Mary bought much more stuff, but she knew what she wanted.

After shopping, we went to supper. It was Tom's treat to Ronnie for helping him with the house building. Here's where we went - Logans Roadhouse - and it was pretty good. Frick and Frack had racks of ribs, Mary had a steak and I had shrimp.



Speaking of Frick and Frack, here's a shot of them standing before the outdoor fireplace at Logans.



That's Frick on the left and Frack on the right. Now isn't that a pair???



It's a good thing Mary and I were along or who knows when they'd have come home!



We left for home after supper, but had to make a stop at WalMart in Sallisaw so they could get water. It sure will be nice when Spring comes and we can get hooked up to "city" water. It was a good day, except for the terrible news about the shooting in Arizona, which we heard leaving the restaurant. All those people need our prayers.

Went to church this morning and came out to it snowing. It snowed until late evening, but the accumulation was not much. However, they are closing lots of schools for tomorrow as there is more forecast for tomorrow. I hope it is negligible. Be safe, take care and God Bless.

How did you decide which was Frick and which was Frack? :). Suiting, nonetheless! Good to see Uncle Tom. He looks pretty good for being cooped up for so many years. Tell him hi!

Frick and Frack are such derogatory names. Don't you like them?
