Weekend getaway

So, last weekend while Chase was in MI, Travis and I took advantage of the time and went on a little weekend refresher. We did not go far, but we had a good time.

I will start my pics with a tribute to the Texas stadium, here is a last picture of the thing standing, as many of you may or may not hears, sunday morning the stadium was imploded and is no longet standing. So, on our way out of town we took one last picture.

If you want to see the live action, go here

We stayed friday in a very nice, local hotel, quite a view!



cool flower arrangement, sorry you cannt see it too well, but it was very pretty.



One of our stops was to Dublin, Tx where they still make Dr. Pepper with real cane sugar, not High Fructos Corn Syrup. This plant in dubblin still bottles it today in these old glass bottles.


This is a HUGE dishwasher for the bottles, they dont crush and make new, they wash them and refill them.




Travis Heaven!



Another fun thing we say along the way, see, everything is bigger in texas. The store that was at this stop made some really beautiful wood tables, bed frames, ets....wish i could afford it, it was gorgous!!!

I just found your blog. Travis and Eric should get together....Eric LOVES Dr. Pepper as well! When we visited the Dr. Pepper museum, Eric was in complete heaven. Of course I was standing there thinking "yeah, this is nice, but it's just a drink." ;)
