Pulled into town and stopped by Rhodes to hang with Sarah...I HAD to get a cup of coffee or I thought I would fall asleep!!! The boys loved playing at the office (if they only knew!) and being in midtown. Neal still remembers that Sissy works by the Zoo, he said it was a beautiful day and a trip to the zoo would be a great idea...but this was a cheap trip so no dice...sorry. Then went to grandmas to visit with her. She filled me in on her trip to Texas. It made me think of going there as a kid. I can still remember all the places and faces she talked about. Actually, as we were looking at pictures I kept asking about something else and it would ALWAYS be the next picture...funny. We had a great visit but had to go to Papas and let Ophelia out. We did that and waited for Pops to get off work so we could go to the Levitt Shell for a free concert that night. They all go once a week but I had not seen it since it was redone. We picked up Gus's for dinner (HOLY MOLY! I miss Gus's!!!), hot chicken served with white bread in grease spotted brown bags...need I say more? The shell was awesome, it cooled off and we were in the shade. Of course Neal made a friend AS SOON as we got there (really, like before we even sat down!) and they were off. It was a great evening, Reba Russell, Jackie Johnson and a few other blues singers really put on a show! It was a late night with Sam falling asleep on my shoulder during the last song, Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. All in all....summer picturesque :)
