Don L -- that's the place; we ate there Memorial Weekend 2008; a great concept serving the meat right off the smoker.  Cooper's being built in Ft. Worth looks a little more upscale than the one in Llano, but I hope that the food is just as good.

Today saw "The One And Only" at Angelika in Dallas.  Was a good movie; mostly senior citizens there; oh, that's getting to be me, but alot of those folks looked OLD.

Hey Robert - Glad you checked in before the first blizzard of the season has y'all covered up. 

We could probably have some BBQ sent up there to you, but I wouldn't want to interfere with all that progress you've made slimming down, that I haven't.

Maybe if I sent it to you, I wouldn't be tempted, but you would - ?  Could become habit-forming, again!

Linda - If they build Cooper's BBQ according to the original, out west of us in Llano, it'll have a smoky, dirt & gravel parking lot along an old bldg, with people lined up against the wall outside waiting to get in. 

That special serving method means you select & they serve your meat right off the huge smoker, just before you walk in the entrance.  Then, you pick up your longnecks & everything else inside, cafeteria style.

We sat at a traditional room size picnic table with some other folks, where there were evenly spaced rolls of paper towels in the middle.

I got an email from Dale who says they are enjoying taking part in the Burning Man event. They slept late today so's they could stay up tonight and watch the big finale as The Man is set afire.

Yuvonne has her Mac with her and set up a live-feed for us to follow the action on this dusty ending day:

Were it not for the oh-so-stingey KarenRL, I'd be there now, cooling my heels in her RV.

For anyone in our area wanting a really pleasant experience eating outdoors in the cooler weather, Rudy and I went to Ft. Worth yesterday and ate "lupper" (that's lunch/supper), 4 pm, at Joe T. Garcia's.  In the shade of a wonderful tree, the weather was perfect and the Mexican food great.  It was so pretty to just sit there and enjoy the view.  They've put a large water fountain in the swimming pool since the last time we've been there. 

Also, there is a Cooper's Bar-B-Q of Llano being built right across the street from Billy Bob's.  If any of you know about Cooper's, they catered Governor George Bush's inaugruation (sp) party after he was elected Governor (I don't know which time), and the meat there is ordered in a unique way and the sides/dessert is wonderful.  The building is just a shell, now, but I was excited to see the restaurant coming to our area.

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. For those of us still "laboring," it is surely a welcome day off.

Happy birthday Mario.

Happy belated birthday to Karen H and Mario and anyone else I might have missed. Hope it was fun.

SNL, I will definitely try to make the October 3rd get-together. BTW, I told Jack I would have loved to be the fourth person on his "golf-challenged" team at the golf tourney but I sold my clubs a long time ago and I wouldn't think of messing up someone else's clubs.

Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.   My b'day wish for today is rain.  It is extremely dry here - and that's scary!!  Planning a quiet weekend - but leaving Wednesday for an Art Show in Indianapolis, IN that we have really been looking forward to.  Everyone have a safe Labor Day Weekend.

And SNL you are so right - our internet service is sooooooo bad.  I just turned the computer on about 15 minutes ago.  Didn't want to spoil my good mood with bad service!!!   Hope to get Hughesnet in the very near future.

Happy birthday Miss Karen.  You'll have a long weekend to party and enjoy yourself.  When the fall starts getting pretty there, will you let me know.  I'd like to take another day trip to your area and enjoy the fall.
