Cathy's Last Hurrah on the AT&T travel train.

Brittany and I departed Oklahoma City on June 28 at 8:25 AM on the Heartland Flyer (Amtak train) for Mineola TX, just a short 30 miles from Tyler, arriving about 5:15 PM. No train wrecks on the way. It was a delightful trip. On Tuesday, we ventured to Shreveport/Bossier City LA. Now Brittany can add one more state to list of states visited. Brittany wanted real cajun food if we went to Louisiana, she chose Crawdaddy's Kitchen from a tour book we had. It was very good, Brittany and I had gumbo, hush puppies, green tomato pickles, Cathy and Charla had fried catfish. Interesting enough the waitress was from Yukon OK. Then on to the boardwalk on the Red River among all the casinos. Lot's of rain on the return to Tyler.

Wednesday was Cathy's official last day, we had a early dinner to celebrate her 3o years of service with AT&T at her favorite cafeteria (similar to Queen Ann's in OKC) with 13 friends and family in attendance. First day of retirement July 1st.

Thursday July 1 returned to OKC.

Cathy says "thirty years at one company is a very long time".
