Updated TX Digs

Adding this post after speaking to my daughter Kathleen and realizing she was under the impression I was still sleeping on the air mattress.

Went to Macy's a few months back and ordered the mattress, box-springs, and frame. They had it delivered and set up about a week later. Found the sheets, pillows, blankets, etc... at Walmart and Kohls.

Splendid luxury!

It's nice to get out of bed in the morning and be on your feet, as opposed to on your hands and knees.

The second upgrade was made shortly after the bed arrived.

IKEA was the source for the last addition, and I am very pleased with my choice. Think I'll get some for down in the man cave back in VA.

Very comfy, and very inexpensive!

Look who I found in Texas...

 My sister Julie was out in the Dallas area on business and we had a chance to visit up at The Gaylord Texan Resort & Spa.

Travel Traders, the company Julie works for, was taking over management of the gift and sundries shops that are in the hotel.

After Julie gave me the nickel tour of the hotel and it's shops, we had a nice dinner and visit at the on site restaurant Riverwalk Cantina.

 Tough Choices!!! Yippie Kay Yay Buckaroo!

 To give some perspective on the size of the hotel. BIG!
