Tuesday, June 24
On Tuesday we hung out at Grammoo and Papa’s, then in the late afternoon, we went to the Manor, picked up John Wayne, and went to Panda Buffet (Grammoo and Papa followed us). John Wayne was so funny; on Sunday he said us girls would have to wear elastic-waisted skirts, because he expected us to eat a lot! He said we all had to have at least three plates, to get his money’s worth.
On the way there, we saw some cool cars…
…and welcome to Portland and all its traffic! Ew. ‘Busy’ on our road is more than four non-neighbor cars in a day! Rush hour is like 20 cars in a line. This was just awful! Stop and go lights on the freeway? Bizarre! Ok, so we sound like country hicks. Really, guys, there IS a life outside the city! (Not to mention, the air is better and there’s less strange people! But then again, strange people are interesting to observe!)
John Wayne is also a follower of Jesus Christ, which was pleasant to find out!
He was very interesting. One of his plates was a plate of fried shrimp. He ate the shrimp and left the bready stuff; he said the bready stuff filled him up too much and the shrimp was the expensive part! At one point, after we’d all finished and were stuffed, the cooks brought in a new dish, and he insisted we all had to try it, and it had to be all gone or the cooks would be upset! So we had some, and it WAS good! (What’s the superlative of “stuffed”? Whatever it was, we were it!) Then we took some pictures!








In case you haven't noticed, my name is Anne, but in RL it's pronounced Annie. At this moment in time I happen to be 21 years old. Herein you will find: The rants, rambles, and otherwise uninteresting happenings in the life of...well, ME, you might say.

Yikes! Look at that traffic! Your sooo right about the country air!!! All my siblings (ok, MOST of them) and I agree….We NEVER want to move back into the city! Adam, rebecca and I have lived in the country for almost 11 years and from Jonny on down, their whole lives!

I like the blue car too! I bet that’s a nice ride!
We got stuck in Nashville and Houston rush hour traffic, so I know what you mean. Our busy traffic is like maybe 4 cars. lol!
that is funny about John Wayne and the restaurant!
