Mark and I left home yesterday to spend the week-end with Matt. He got us FREE rooms at the Marriott through one of his fitness clients and the hotel is just beautiful. Beats the Super 8's we had stayed in before. It is nice to have "connections"!
Matt was working when we arrived around 3 P.M. so we went to Westroad Malls to kill some time and money. :-) Actually, we got out of the mall quite cheaply: 6 pairs of men's briefs at half price in Penneys. Normally we would not drive all the way to Omaha for Mark's briefs but since I failed to pack him any it left us no choice. One can never have too much underwear....or is that shoes and purses???
Matt arrived at the hotel around 5:30, we visited for awhile and then walked down to the hotel's steak house. All three of us had their special, all the prime rib you could eat. It was a delicious meal. Following dinner Matt took us on a Chirstmas lights tour of the "better" residences of Omaha. We went to Linden Estates and Bennington Lake. Most homes started at one million dollars and it was truly amazing. Such wealth....and lights! The home included in thispost was one of the "cheaper" ones. Unbelievable.
He is working today and should be here in an hour. We are going to Cabella's then out to an early dinner at Texas Roadhouse and then to the Quest Center. Matt bought us all tickets for the Creighton vs. Xavier BB game tonight, so that will be fun.
We will be driving home tomorrow.
