Chris and I made the trip to Gladewater
yesterday and found the garden which is still closed. However, the
daffodils are starting to bloom. From what we could see the place will
be incredible when the daffodils are in full bloom.
It took us an hour and forty minutes to go
from the Shell station at Highway 34 and 80 in Terrell. We also checked
out restaurants in Gladewater and found four, a Bar BQ place , Hamburger
place that has a Krispy Kream Hamburger, a Mexican place, the place we
think will be the best the Pea Patch. The Pea Patch has a room that
seats 40 that they use for car clubs and
on Saturdays their special is a hand cut chicken fried steak for
$6. We ate at the Hamburger place, but did not have the KKH. The
burgers were good,
french fries not so good.
The primary date is
March 5, meeting at 9-9:30 a.m. at the Shell station - Junction
of Hwy's 34 and 80 in Terrell- refuel if necessary leave by 10 a.m.
This will get us into
Gladewater by noon. Have lunch and then go to the garden. The
garden is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The secondary date is
March 12, in place of our
regular breakfast at the Swiss Pastry Shop!
The second secondary date is
March 19, by then the blooms will probably be almost over.
