Lexington was a great time. We went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner with George's cousin and his cousin's wife. This is where the fun begins. They thought it would be funny to have the servers sing happy birthday to me- because they won't get to spend my 30th with me (which isn't until end of March). Group of clapping singing servers surround the table. Throw a ginormous sombrero on head and continue to make a scene. Song is over. They tilt my head back and give me a tequila shot. Then another server comes up with ice cream for dessert, goes to give me a bite and smothers my face with whip cream! Everywhere!! Haha! I definitely didn't see that coming! The night concluded with very animated Karaoke sang by George's roomate (and incredible artist) Kevin, and Dance Party U.S.A. in their living room after we left the Karaoke Bar.
Saturday We went to George's Family's cabin in The Daniel Boone National Forest. Beautiful. But VERY COLD. Sat by a warm fire and shot the breeze.
Yesterday I woke up and hit the road! Slight detour, an hour north out of my way due to rock slides in North Carolina, but I made it to Charleston, SC just about 7:30pm. Caught up with a little bit of the grammy's while entering time for work. And then Sarah took me to her work and then out to Folley Beach where we went to Blue and then the Surf Bar ( VERY COOL little place with a great folky band playing). Can't wait to check everything out a little later today- I hear Charleston is Savannah's sister city, and we all know how dearly I LOVE SAVANNAH!
