Our off-66 detour couldn’t have been more enjoyable last night. We arrived at BoomR and BluVox’s gorgeous home in North Dallas, at which time they treated us to a positively magnificent dinner at Chamberlain’s Steak and Chop House. It was a religious experience — and I’m still bloated. I was a member of the Clean Plate Club fo sho. A big piece of crusty bread, a Caesar salad, a medium-rare filet mignon, garlic mashed potatoes, and several sample bites from this –

– all gone, down the hatch, into the gullet.
The food was matched only by the company and the conversation. I love these guys! We all had a great time and a ton of laughs, and I’m looking forward to when BoomR comes to visit me in September.
Now if I can drag myself to the shower and the car, we’ll get on with this thing. I’m never eating again. I mean it. Fly me over the Super Bowl.

Heheh – Suz I wish I could take credit for that wisecrack, but that’s a Mavis-ism!
I will definitely take the photo *before* chowing down from now on. Oh wait…I said I was never eating again. Oh well, since I have your permission, screw that! LOL

You just eat all you want, sweets. You’re on vacation!! I’m so thrilled that you had such a great time with BoomR and BluVox! They are great guys, for sure. Nothing like Texas hospitality to keep you going back!
Happy trails today!

Hey, I’ll be so fulla hot air, I’ll give you a satellite view! HAHA
We did have a great time with B & B. They personified Texas hospitality for us — we had a beautiful guest room suite, complete with HDTV and our own bathroom. And the party fridge was five steps next door — how great was that, I ask you?
Thanks — I’ll keep you updated!

Safe travels & I can’t wait to read/hear about the remaining Route 66 adventures!
