Note: To our friends that might come to Stillwater (for a reason)… We have an extra set of Womens BB tickets – midcourt row 6 if you want to attend a game let us know when and will get them to you or come by…
Tis the day after Christmas and we are all… STUFFED… at least I am. But that doesn’t stop people from wanting to go eat…
The morning went slow, I spent time checking out some things I need… broke the UV filter on my camera again… that is 3 times… 2 for me and 1 for wife … in a year but they are only $9 each and so far they seem to protect the camera lens some… so I will need to order a couple more… I have a spare but it is at home so have to be careful till I get home… I may need to carry the spare? think?
At noon those of us not working (Sean had to go to work) decided that we needed lunch and would go out… same old discussion… “Where do you want to go” ,” I don’t know”, “ I don’t care” so it took several blocks down the road to determine we needed to go to “IN-n-OUT” burger.
Now in my opinion it is not that great a burger… I do remember going to them in California back in the early 90’s when that was about the only place you could find one. Today they are branching out all over. I seem to remember that the burger was bigger, and had more flavor and the fries were better? but oh well, everyone things this is the greatest or maybe it is the idea of it…? The name sells… I even have T-shirts from the old originals I went to, that are almost wore out, and sure like the shirts so maybe it is my having worn those T-shirts around all the time that advertised it so well? Think? probably not.
Well we got there just after 12 noon and the place was packed like normal… coming in waves… no place to set… have to scramble for a spot… but we got in, eat, and got out with out being run over…
The afternoon was spent reading and watching the brisket cook…yea that is a horrible job, but someone had to … The smoker went out once and I had to restart it but it came out ok… after cooking all day… Then Sean got home and fixed much of it into “burnt ends” …
With some salad and rice… good stuff… That was the day… ended with a bit more study, reading, posting, and other things… so that was “boxing day”…
I did do some looking at the maps and weather predictions… damn it is cold up north… predicting snow, real cold and all that stuff for Colorado Springs… but I was looking for next week and it is supposed to be balmy then… in the 30’s… better get the heavy coats and long-johns out…
