I was really spoiled on Valentine's Day. Gary could find the most beautiful cards, and the prettiest flowers and of course, a huge heart shaped box of candy. He did that every year. I was pampered and just plain spoiled. So this year I want to pay a tribute to him, that precious red-headed cowboy who taught me about love.
Some time ago I was telling one of the young waitresses about my cowboy and she asked if I had a photo. Well, not with me, can you believe that, a phone with no picture on it and a wallet with no photo in it. So for Valentine's Day supper I decided to go to Chuck's BBQ in Herrin, Illinois. I decided to take Gary with me and let the girls meet my guy.
I propped us up by the salt shaker and proceeded to show everyone my guy, Gary Frey. You know what, I had a really nice time with that red headed cowboy. Somehow it just seemed he was right there.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
I HOPE YOU HAVE JUST ONE SOMEONE WHO LOVES YOU SO SPECIAL!
