This weekend marks
the third weekend
in a row
that I’ve taken
a road trip outta town.

Little Rock, Arkansas
was the target this time around.
Cory Branan set up
a last minute show,
so we made a night of it.

Checked into the Hilton
where we made our own
hotel bar.

At the show I met Starr Crow,
a fellow Arkansas vintage seller & blogger!
It was so great to talk to someone face to face about
vintage,
photography,
and all the fashion bloggers we follow.
Check out her blog and Etsy shop!

Before the night was done…
we jumped for joy.
(and for more beer)

We devoured a fourth meal back at the hotel.

And at three am
we spent five minutes
nervously trying to jump the fence
to the hotel pool.
When all of the sudden
we watched two dudes
just open the gate
and walk right in.
Funniest part of the evening right there.

After just a few hours of
restless hotel sleep
and an 11 o’clock checkout time,
we headed home
tired, but happy.

So we have a few hurricane Rita evacuees staying with us till everything settles down. Todd’s dad, step-mom, and their huge poodle Louie(see above) have been here since Thursday. It took them almost 24 hours to get here from Houston. Normally it would be about a 9 hour drive. I seriously can’t even imagine.

As for this weekend…
Another Friday night that actually began Friday afternoon. Laura and I set the weekend off early at Jose’s with some girl talk right after we got off work. From there we continued down the street to the Dickson Theatre, where we met up with Cory Branan & friends. The night ended at Maxine’s just before it closed. A fun, but long evening that left me feeling a bit rough on Saturday. I took a bunch of pictures, but here are the few that survived..
