todays gratitude journal story:
we quickly get the boys are on their buses this morning.
we pack the car with folding chairs & a mini cooler.
we are headed downtown by 9am.
we are excited.
we have been looking forward to our morning "hooky" all week.
we arrive at our destination.
we can smell the smokers lovingly smoke our brisket.
we share stories with strangers.
we settle in our place in line.
we are psyched.
we snap pictures to document the event.
our ears suddenly perk up....
an employee is walking down the line -
perhaps to take our cocktail order as we wait?
what?!
our place in line won't be served until 1:30pm....
its 9:30am now !
we cry.
we pack it up.
we chat with the folks all the way at the front of the line.
note to self: need to be here at 7am.
franklins bbq - we will be back & we will succeed next time!
