   How cool is that?
   Ree’s ranch has to be the bestest pitstop in the trip. So did you guys get to stay in the lodge? Were other bloggers there too?
   Pictures…lots of them and one of Bossy on a horse.

    Of course you noticed the amazing resemblance between this handsome buckskin and Stella. Helpful hint to tell them apart: Buckskin makes more poop, but of a less smelly variety.

    Okay, so I live north of OKC. I was on the list of people invited to meet up with Bossy in Dallas. Which is 4 hours away. Couldn’t do it on a week night.

    But now you’re in Oklahoma… a mere 1.5 hours away from Ree’s neck of the woods and no gathering?

    What’s up with that? Excuse me while I go pout.

    Hi Bossy’s Daughter!
    And Bossy, I saw your son the other day at the place he works. He doesn’t know me from any other random customer but I can report he is easily the most with-it kid on their staff. (And I *like* the staff.) I’m sure he’s missing you but he’s doing fine.
    Thanks for taking us on your wild ride!

    It’s a little surreal to see a photo of one blog I visit on another blog! And very cool at the same time (indeed, it reminded me that PW was how I found Bossy in the first place, when Bossy put a link to her photoshop tutorial in a comment).

The first week of April is usually the most beautiful week of the year, but we are running a little late. Make sure you get to the Mo. Botanical Gardens whilst you are here. We are expecting a gorgeous weekend!
    Safe travels, stay dry, and have a wonderful trip.

    This was the whole reason for your road trip, wasn’t it? And you came up with the rest of it (other stops, Saturns, etc.) after that initial plan.

    Like so many others have said, when you have time, a much longer post is in order.

    HI, BOSSY’S DAUGHTER!
    HI, BOSSY’S SON!

     Yeah, I saw Bossy taking pictures of Cowboy Josh over at PW’s. A lot of pictures. Some would say Bossy borders on voyeurism. Some would say Bossy has gone over the border. But not me!
