John Does Dallas

Sadly, Memorial Day weekend is over and it’s back to “normal” again. My brother, John, visited this weekend from Florida and we had such a blast! I was so sad to say goodbye to him this morning, though.


He got in Thursday evening and we went straight to the Flying Saucer in downtown Ft. Worth for dinner and drinks. After that, we went to the H-3 Ranch in the Stockyards for a few more drinks and dessert.


On Friday, we met Garrett for lunch at the World’s Largest Hooters in Dallas. Then did some shopping at the Galleria, and off to Top Golf for some electronic driving range fun.




Saturday morning Garrett got John on the back of the motorcycle and took him for a tour around town and the lake.


He loved it so much we had brunch and then went to the Harley dealership to look around. They always have a party up there on Saturdays, so it was a lot of fun. After that we did some shopping and then went to one of our favorite local restaurants for dinner, then another one for drinks and pool.



Sunday was Six Flags over Texas. We had a blast! Garrett and John went on every roller-coaster they had.



Garrett and I won these.


John found a souvenir in the gift store.


Then it rained and we got SOAKED!


Yesterday we just took it easy and did some more sight-seeing and shopping. Garrett and John kept “posing it out” for shoppers at the Parks Mall. They would stand in random poses without moving and see if people noticed.


One family did notice after walking by a few times. They eventually sat down on a bench and watched them to see if they’d move. For some reason it was hysterical!

Although we didn’t get to enjoy the $5 martinis at Ferrari’s, we had a blast! I’m ready for the next visit! When are you coming back John??
