Chillin'

Ah, vacation! Temps fell sharply yesterday. Last night it was below freezing. Plunging temperatures didn't prevent us from gadding about. We went out with my Aunt to pick up her turkey from her employer. Then we drove by old homeplaces where my family members have lived in the past.

Next we stopped at the Rock House in Noble, OK--home of the rose rock. Good thing we don't go on vacation often as we splurged on souvenirs there. One that I'll mention is a shirt that declares that I'm older than dirt. That's appropriate enough as it was dyed using the local red dirt.

We rounded out the evening by dining at the Rib Crib (all you can eat ribs!) Delicious. Good thing that we don't go on vacation often or the househunk would have to roll me along like a barrel.

I finished off the night by working on FLEs (final line edits) for Magnolia, the next Flowers of Camelot book--coming out 12/12! Yay!

Today? More visiting with family members. A quick zip through the Wal-Mart. Possibly a little more sightseeing. Mostly... just chillin'.
