Paris on Saturday

It was a rainy, overcast Saturday so Sparky & I decided to go to Paris.















No, not in France!! (I WISH)






Paris, TX
Didn't have any real reason, just felt like a road trip. So, I drove over to his house (an hour away) & we took off for Paris. We laughed about going to Paris for the day several times. We had a very nice day. Went to a very high-end furniture store that is going out of business & window shopped. They had some Civil War paintings I really liked, but no one wants to buy my first & only born so I was SOL. LOL! The merchandise was still very expensive even marked way down. But it was fun to look & we saw some very unique pieces. There was an $18,000 side board that I liked. Ah, the plight of a poor Okie girl with a Dom P. appetite.
Ate dinner at Shogun in Paris (Japense hibachi) & along with hibachi we had one of our favorites, sushi. Then we took a different route back to OK. Just took our time & took in the scenery. Stopped at a catfish restaurant for supper that we like just over the dam on the OK side of Lake Texhoma. Good fish- best bone-in catfish I have had in a long time. The fries & hushpuppies were "commercial" but the fish made it all worthwhile. Then it was back on the road to Sparky's place. We watched a little TV then I headed back to my house. It was a very pleasant laid back kinda day. Just nice to cruise in the 'Vette, talk, laugh, & sing along with the radio.
Life is good!!
Blessed be...
