We have never been to a Waffle House before. So we had to try it. Best reason is that its the only restaurant that we could walk to without crossing the 8 lane highway…

You would think that they would serve their signature meal with real butter… But this is the South…

After breakfast we caught up with the blog, read a little, and watched old sitcoms on TV.

At noon we headed towards Lindale, TX…

It rained most of the way…

We left the interstate and drove through back roads and some small towns… This is Gladewater, TX. Still raining…

Even though these are small two-lane roads with cross streets and driveways the speed limit is still 70 mph…

We soon arrived at our friend’s house in Lindale, TX…

Still raining. Hard…

We backed the Villa as far as possible into their barn/shed to get out of the inevitable hail storm…

We enjoyed an evening of food and wine and friendship…

An enjoyable time was had by all…
