Sister's talk

Sister K and I have been discussing going down to Corpus Christi to see JB&S www.thestragglers.com on Wednesday night and returning that night. I know that it's only a little over 200 miles but when you get out of bed at 7:00 AM, go to work until noon, drive to Corpus Christi and back, we're talking about a long day. Anyway, we both had heard that this show might sell out since it will be the first show that he'll be back since his little "vacation" and thought that it would be best if we purchased the tickets in advance. A call was made to the Executive Surf Club http://www.executivesurfclub.com/ yesterday and Sister K was told that they didn't have tickets yet...call back tomorrow. The below is an excerpt of our conversation that followed purchasing tickets:

Me: have you called them yet to order a ticket?

Sister K: I just called them and they are 11.00 ea. I got both of us a ticket - the place is right around the corner from the surf club - she said there is a woody out in front (i started giggling) - just come by and pick them up. They will be open - some how affiliated with the surf club????

Me: I don't know I'll recognize a woody if I see one...

Sister K: that's funny - what time do you get off tomorrow?

Me: I just now snapped to what kind of a woody the girl could be talking about...duh. Maybe a jeep?

Sister K: uh, yeah! with wooden side panels....

Me: noon...leaving here & going to the bank to deposit my check & then going home.

Sister K: okay, I'll leave about the same time - I'll have to go home and change clothes and I'll meet you down at mom's!!!

Granted, I'm a bit naive some times but the part about the "woody" is true. I couldn't imagine what kind of landmark we'd be looking for...the real kicker is when Sister K told Mama R what are plan is, (to drive to CC & back in 1 night) she said "been there, done that." It would seem history is repeating itself, generation after generation. And now the countdown is on...less than 24 hours til we head out for Corpus Christi and I can hardly stand it. Wish me luck and a safe trip!!!
