BACK IN HOUSTON

Friday, May 27 – After seeing the Oklahoma City is going to have more sever thunderstorms and possible tornadoes, we packed up and headed back to Houston. No use pushing our luck.

It is really hot here…98. The wind is blowing but nothing like OK City. We are very happy about that. Going to lay low today and just chill.

FLASHBACK TO WEDNESDAY – We met a couple full-timer classmates of ours today. Full-timer's that began traveling in the same year (in our case 2009) or 2008, and belong to the Escapee's RV Club, get together whenever in the same area to exchange “war stories” and try to out do each other with travel stories. We met up with Steve & Carol at the Fire Lake Grand Casino in Shawnee. After chatting for a while, we headed over to the Casino for some lunch where we continued getting to know one another.

After a nice lunch, we decided to try our luck on the slots. We signed up for a players card which got us a free game of Keno and $10 credit on the slots. We each put in $5 and after about an hour Paul walked away with $12 in his pocket and Marsha had $13.

Oh....I forgot one thing. The casino had a free ice cream machine and free soda. We each had a bowl of ice cream and it was GOOD!

After hugs and hand shakes, we said our good-byes and headed home to prepare for tomorrow's trip. We're heading back into Texas to the Houston area to visit the girls and help our oldest daughter move to Ohio.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see ya'll back real soon. Have a great day!

  1. You guys just can't stay away from that Texas state, can you. Glad you got to meet Carol and Steve. We sure do like them. But I'm also glad you guys are out of that OKC area.

  2. Well, you should be safe in Houston from all those tornadoes. However, late summer they start getting hurricanes. Run, Weaver, Run!
