Bennett Goes to the Panhandle

About 2 years ago, my dad and stepmother moved to the panhandle of Texas just north of Amarillo. It's beautiful up there....a different way of life. Things move at a much slower pace. The horses are your alarm clock as they come stomp around near the porch letting you know it's time to get up and feed them. People fly their flags high because their proud to live in the Lonestar state. Another thing I love about Texas is that you wave to oncoming cars not necessarily because you recognize them, but because it's the friendly thing to do. They have neighbors, but you don't see them from their front porch. It's a little piece of heaven, as Fletcher put it. For us, it's a little like stepping back in time. Bennett loved spending time with his Papa and Grammy. We rode horses, planted flowers, and dined on delicious steak and grilled catfish. We can't wait to go back to the panhandle!
