When you go to a tool fair all the tools soon begin to look a like. However, TNT likes me to be there even if he doesn’t admit it. He likes to show me the new tool boxes or the new tools. I’m a good wife so I nod and say neat at the appropriate times. This year the convention as held at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine, TX. It was an amazing place!
This pretty much sums up how my days went. Lots of people watching.
Wobble sockets. Is it sad I know what a wobble socket is?
More tool boxes.
Drag racers John & Ashley Force & Doug Kalitta, custom designer Chip Foose, and NASCAR Nationwide driver Marcus Ambrose were there to sign autographs. I’ve been through those lines a few times so I didn’t this year.
They had this little go-cart there.
And then they know how to do a birthday cake. The cool company celebrated 75 years and boy is that a big cake!
Friday night was their big Awards ceremony/fancy dinner, but we didn’t go. TNT suggested we do all our laundry in the two large washers the hotel provides for free. We did 4 big loads in 3 hours. I was glad not to have to worry about a days worth of laundry once we got home.
We left Dallas at 4:30 pm and walked in our house at 1:30 am that equals 643 miles. By the time we got everything unloaded, showered and in bed it was 3. This lady was tired and slept till noon on Sunday.
The hubs came home with a really bad cold.





What a good wife!
Sounds like a good ole time!
