Lights, Landon, Action . . .
For some reason I woke up with a bad headache this morning. Must have something to do with sleeping in an otherwise empty bed.
But I was feeling better after taking some Advil, so about 11:30 I headed up to Brandi’s to meet up with Jan and Landon.
On the way I stopped off at Wal-Mart to pick up some birdseed for Jan, and then Starbuck’s for coffee and Jack in the Box for Supreme Croissants for breakfast. I also stopped off at the storage room and picked up the furniture dolly for my upcoming washer repair.
I got to the house about 1pm, just in time to help Jan bathe Landon and get him ready for his nap. Then it was time for Jan’s nap. She’d been up since 5 am and needed one.
After Landon got up he played and watched Barney the Purple Dinosaur until about 4, when we headed out for an early dinner.
We drove up to I-45 and Fuqua to eat at Golden Corral. Although the wrong direction for what we had planned for later, we wanted to see if Helen, our favorite waitress, had ended up here.
We first met Helen years ago at the Ryan’s on Bay Area Blvd in Webster. When that Ryan’s closed, she moved down to the Ryan’s in Texas City, and we followed. But this year when we visited there a couple of weeks ago, she no longer worked there. In fact we were told she had moved back to Louisiana. We thought we were out of luck.
But when we ate at Barcenas Mexican Restaurant last week, we met another waiter we’ve known for a long time, and who also knew Helen. He said she was up at the Golden Corral.
And as if turns out, a number of her customers had also found her there too.
She said she had been trying to find our card so she could call us, so it all worked out.
Leaving Golden Corral, we drove down to Dickinson to visit their Festival of Lights. We parked at a nearby church where a shuttle bus took us to the park.

We had to wake Landon up after we parked, so he wasn’t too sure what was going on with the bus ride over there.

They really do a great job with the several acres of lights they put up. And it’s free.

Landon’s head kept swiveling around so much I was afraid it was going to fall off.

Not sure what he was looking at it, but he apparently found it highly disturbing.
We got back to the house a few minutes before 8pm, with Landon amazingly still awake. But once Jan got him in his jammies and gave him his medicine he was ready for bed.
Time for Jan to catch her breath.
Once Landon and Jan were settled in, I headed back down to the rig for the night.
Tomorrow I’ll go over earlier so we can have breakfast at The Egg and I, before driving over to Bass Pro Shop to visit their Santa’s Wonderland with Landon.
Should be another busy day.
