Shreveport trip

Busy week, a bit behind on my posts. We had a great trip to Shreveport, 200 miles each way, we left early Saturday and stayed off the interstates for the most part. We arrived to a good group and a good turnout. Lucky for our group, one of the guys, Steven Foster, had an in to a guest tent. We paid a small fee, got some food, a long sleeve tshirt, and primo seating for the parade. Had a lot of fun. I'll post some pics under a seperate post.

I'm not much of a gambler, and true to form, I didn't lose any money, cause I didn't gamble. However, Darlene does partake a bit and as such, we had some entertainment and value for our $$ for a while. And no, we did not win.

Monday was a holiday for us, and since we came home on Sunday, that means home project work. Actually several of our projects are getting to the point were they just need to be finished and we are getting much closer. We finished up some painting on Monday and it feels good.

Can't seem to get ahead though. This Saturday we will be in Bedford all day cooking some prize winning chili! Hopefully one of our two teams will win and we can bring next years competition back to AE and won't have to travel so far!
