Thanksgiving Trip - Part 3

Friday was a fun filled day for us. As previously posted Caron & I hit Walmarts for the 5:00 early sale and after getting home, we realized Uncle D had planned on going with us but we left before he was ready. He decided he wanted to check out Home Depot to see if they had any special Black Friday specials so off we go at about 6:00. We were blessed to see a beautiful sunrise but my picture doesn't do it justice: After we got back home & everyone else got up, Uncle D took some pictures of Manuel for his graduation in May:

After lunch and a much needed nap, we headed out for the boys to do a little indoor Go-Karting:

We ended our day with dinner at LoneStar Steakhouse with Caron, Mark, Mom, Dad, Uncle D and me:

After about 3 1/2 hours traveling we landed in Childress, TX for the night. Wednesday morning, we headed on down 287 towards Amarillo, TX where we found:

We took a break and walked around Sams finding a few bargains and then on the road again. Finally we came across these two signs which made Uncle D happy:

He loves it when he can kick the speed up a little more legally. We arrived around 1:30 Wednesday afternoon at Uncle D's little sister's family's home.
