Dudleys Diary

while everyone else has gone in different directions. Lizzie and her Aunt Lo have gone to the Beauty shop for a Pedicure and then were going out to eat lunch and then go play with Aunt Lo's dog. Frank went out to eat lunch with his buddy Jeff and then they are going to go out to the golf club above for 18 holes of golf. The course they are playing used to be the old base course for Carswell AFB. It is now a Naval Air Station and Joint Reserve Base and I think when they decommissioned Carswell, they must have sold off the golf course to a private developer. Looks like a pretty nice place. It is open to the public but like everything these days, it is not cheap. I think it costs 50.00 to play on weekends. I think they may include the cart rental. Frank went by the local Sports and Outdoors Store and bought 15 new balls. He said it was a mad house and to stay away. It is the before school TAX Free weekend and the shoppers are out in full force. On the way Frank called and said it looked like they are having a Tea Party Protest near a local mall. He saw a lady holding a sign proclaiming My Government, My Taxes, My Health Care! He did not see anyone brandishing any weapons like they were in Arizona last week. Texas does not allow open carry but there are those who would like to see a law passed to allow it. Dudley prefers the concealed carry law the way it is. Keep the bad guys guessing just who is carrying and who is not. We got a good rain shower yesterday morning. Frank will have to mow the yard tomorrow. Dudley's wife is getting ready to go to the store. We are going to have fried catfish and waffle fries tonight. Will watch the Rangers and eat one of Dudley's favorite things. Unable to eat shrimp any more after developing an allergy to the iodine in the shrimp after having a medical procedure done where they injected Dudley with iodine and Dudley had a reaction and had to be rushed across the street to the ER. Wish I had never had that damn test done so I could still be eating shrimp. Afraid to eat crawfish now for the same reason. Dudley enjoyed watching the Dallas Cowboys play the first game last night in the new stadium. It was awesome and the Cowboys actually played well unlike the first pre season game. Frank bought a ticket for the first regular season game against the New York Giants but he bought a Standing Room Only ticket. Dudley would rather watch the game from the comfort of his recliner.
