Lubbock I will say is somewhat of an enigma, the topography is grim, as the saying goes, "it is so flat you can watch your dog run away for a week". But on the other hand, it has a small town feel, everything you can think of is available, lots of restaurants, shopping, etc, maybe because of the university, and has perhaps the best grocery store we've ever been to, H.E.B. And of course, our daughter Kelly and SIL Brian live there.
They just bought a house, very nice, has a stellar back yard, in fact sitting out there you could be anywhere you want, green grass, big deciduous trees, quiet, shaded, awesome!
We had a whirlwind visit, Jan got her hair done, we both got our flu shots, ran numerous other errands but most of all we got to visit, smoke cigars with Brian, and be spoiled by Kelly's incredible dinners.
The dinners started with Thai Coconut Shrimp Curry.
Followed by incredible short ribs with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts.
All topped off with Brazilian Fish Stew or Moqueca!
Wowser, right?
But the time came when we had to say good bye and head east, a good time was had by all.
