Good morning everyone!

How was your weekend?

As mentioned in the Mexican food thread - we had relatives down this weekend and had fun taking them on the "zoom" tour (meaning FAST) of Austin - eating lots of Mexican food, chile rellenos, in particular.

Guess where we are going today??? Betcha can't guess! (scroll down)

























CABELAS!!! (It's an outdoor hunting/fishing store) Aren't you SURPRISED! LOL! I bet you think we spend all our time/money in hunting/fishing stores!!! LOL! Well, almost, but not quite!

Actually, my husband wears their slip on shoes year round - they are his favorite shoes. They are normally $30.00 per pair, but are on sale right now for $15.00. So, that is his excuse for needing to go, to get a couple of pairs of shoes.

NOW, the $64,000 question - Will that be the only thing he buys??? I'll let you know!

LOLOL.....those kinds of stores are fun to shop in no matter how often ya go. Always something new coming out. I don't think there is a Cabela's close to us. I think they were going to build one in Indianapolis, but don't know if they did. Guess I'll have to check online to see if there are any close.

Have a great time with your guests.

We got two pairs of shoes for him and he got his hunting/fishing license renewed. Oh, and we bought something for our son-in-laws birthday next month. So, it was a productive trip without spending too much money!

Cabela's is fun to walk around in because of all the mountings but I hardly ever find anything there for myself either. But I go because my husband enjoys going there. He certainly tags along with me often enough that I figure I can do the same for him.

It sounds like your husband got a really good deal on his shoes. Too bad that you didn't find anything!!

My dad gets a Cabela's catalogue in the mail, but I don't think there are any stores in Canada. My friend (her parents are good friends with mine) used to go there everytime she'd be in Texas with her ex-boyfriend who was a long-haul trucker. If my dad had his way, the whole house would be decked out in chandeliers made of antlers Luckily, my mom wins when it comes to decorating

ETA: I just checked the website, and one store has just opened in Canada... but in Montreal! A little too far for a shopping trip lol
