Ann Barnhardt, who teaches Bud Williams Marketing Schools across the U.S. and Canada, was in Springfield, Missouri, and we got together for a fun evening! She loves visiting caves and suggested we visit Fantastic Caverns and then have dinner. Although Richard was born and raised in this area, he’d never been there, and neither had I! We had a super time, and it was nice and cool in the cave!

Here’s the hokey group shot I just had to buy! You can see Richard in the cowboy hat; I’m beside him, and Ann is across from him.
You know me, I keep trying new photo album programs. Here’s one I tried last fall and actually put some photos on, but never really tried again. Since I’m looking for an easy photo album for a client, I pulled it up again and gave it a try. Click here to see the album for this trip.
We ate dinner at Steak and Ale in Springfield, and it was one of the best meals I’d had in my life! Try the lobster bisque; you can’t go wrong. Richard and I decided we will go back and just have the bisque and salad bar, and maybe more bisque, next time!
Thank you so very much Ann for the wonderful evening out! And David is probably still thanking you!
