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!

  2. OMG!!!!! That place is HUGE. And I thought only the corn dogs were bigger in Texas. So glad you got to spend time with Julie. You sure haven't lacked visitors the past 6 weeks! Yay.
