Ok...eight seven girlfriends (We left Judy in Montgomery.) packed in a car for 2 hrs as they traveled home.  No. Let’s rewind a moment....

Sometime in January several girlfriends got together and planned to spend an evening dining and “Rocking and Rolling” with Elvis and Buddy Holly at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival in Montgomery, Alabama. The date was set for February 13^th.

Judy and I journeyed earlier on this day leaving around 10AM for a bit of shopping and for her to settle in with her daughter and family for a few days visit. We spent our time non-stop talking and learning that we had more in common with each other than we thought. Judy prepared a lite lunch for us which we ate “in style” (“in her vehicle”). She had for us sliced strawberries, two kinds of cheeses, chips, and bacon parmesean baked crackers. Oh my…what a treat!

Neither of us was really looking to shop but we did get some great ideas on layering clothes and utilizing accessories that we already have in our closet. (And some we’ve never worn (the belt)…right Judy?)

The other girls, Gloria, Glenda, Lisa, Joy, Retha, Jean, gathered at 3:30PM and began their journey soon after meeting up. No doubt there was a lot of chit-chatting going on.  I warned the driver, Glenda, that I would be returning with them so they better get their “chatter on” about me on the way up. Love those girls!!!  

As they traveled by “Sax” and Kohn,  Judy and I contacted them on their whereabouts, I was informed by Gloria I might need a helmet on the ride back. Hummmmm…what’s up? 

We dined at Mimi’s Cafe. Now with eight ladies, there is bound to be some drama. Let’s see…gravy is good on rice, soup is hot, second round of beverages is really good, and free muffins with a wink are even better.

With our two vehicles parked side by side at ASF, we all readied ourselves to walk to the theater’s front door. But first, the girls showed me where my seat would be on the ride back home…the small area behind the third row seats.  Maybe I’ll be more comfortable with the hatch open and my feet flailing in the wind.

Top of the Festival Stage and seated in a small grouping, we had a blast “rockin and rollin” to the great music of Elvis and Buddy Holly. Clapping hands, singing out loud, and dancing…we really had a good time.

Now back to the beginning of this story...

Eight Seven girlfriends (We left Judy in Montgomery.) packed in a car for 2 hours as they traveled home. (Oh, they all gave in and I was spared the “small seating”.) We began the journey after a quick detour to a convenience store to stock up on drinks and snacks for the road.  Before we even got out of Montgomery, the car was jumping with stories and laughter.

Listen up…You Pinterest? What’s that? I can’t even get this FB down. I believe the general concensus was that some are definitely in need of a workshop.

Blogging – That's me, and I was sharing my most recent post…Salmon "croquets". I know...salmon don't play croquet.

Traveling – Glenda, Gloria, & Retha went to Savannah and a trip to the ER was needed for one’s eye...Hey...Do you wear con "tics"? Wow, didn't know that Tic-Tacs was a sponsor for them too!

Saw a dear…sorry…Saw a deer.

Packing? “Roll that window up, Lisa!

Awww man...I've got to work tomorrow. Not me. Sleeping in. Ya'll be good!

Love to All Ya'll Girls!
