Vacation - First Mel Tillis and Merle Haggard Concert and back to Texas

While we were in Branson I saw a commerical about Merle Haggard coming there that Saturday night well we were leaving Friday so I told Tim that figures!  So Tim got on my ipad and found that he would be in Durant, OK at the Choctaw Casino with Mel Tillis.  I thought that was so funny because the first time my parents took me to Branson we were given a choice who we wanted to see and we picked Mel Tillis.  So we decided that that would be a great place to stop for the night so we got tickets and a room at the casino.   We had a blast at the concert.  We told Zach about Mel Tillis' song "Coca-Cola Cowboy" and Tim told him that his dad used to sing it to his mom (his dad works for Coke dist.)  Luckily he sang it that night so Zach sang along with it.  Merle was really good too and I think Zach enjoyed him too.  This was also Zach's first time to see a casino and boy were his eyes big.. until I told him that the people were losing money.. he didn't like that part. 


Saturday we got up and we happy to get back to Texas!  We decided to give Zach one more first..
Cooper's BBQ at the Stockyards in Ft.Worth.. it was SO GOOD but I have to admit it is even better in Llano!  But we all enjoyed it! 



If you have followed this blog for a while you know that I love County Courthouses and well I got a new one while we were in Ft. Worth... Tarrant County



We had a great trip!  We were happy to go on vacation and relax but I think we were happy to get back home too.
