Ogallala, Nebraska Day 2

Day Two: February 27th, 2010 Ogallala, Nebraska

We just returned from a big ol’ steak dinner. While wolfing down 15oz. of peppered rib eye, baked potato, Caesar Salad and bread, my thoughts went to my new dress for this year’s tour. It’s a size four. If I continue in this manner, Frank will need a team of oxen to help zip me up!

That’s right. We perform tomorrow. Practice would be a good idea. So far, all we’ve been doing is eating, schlepping and traveling. I hope I still know how to play the piano. Today’s travel day was beautiful, sunny and mild. Ahhhh. We visited a nice grocery store HyVee I think it was, to buy healthy fruits, whole grains, etc. We blew the whole idea on tonight’s dinner. Well, that’s OK I guess. We boiled it all off in the hot tub.

I’m learning Face book. In the car today my eyes were more on my iPhone then on the scenery. Let’s see, since the last tour I’ve learned how to email, blog, text, and now this Face book thing. Frank’s always one step ahead of me, though. He does Twitter, too. Enough already! How many ways do we need to keep in touch? I have to admit, its kind of fun, and it’s really more about people than technology.

We’d better both turn in. We’ve got a big day tomorrow. Everybody in the restaurant knew who we were due to a newspaper article. But how do we get sleep when it’s “Girls Night Out” on the other side of our hotel room wall? Well, I’m sure I’ve been guilty of that myself, so I must owe. Frank just turned on the TV. We’ll drown them out with reruns of “Boston Legal.”
Or, we’ll fall asleep with the TV on…
zzzzzzz
