On Thursday I met Elise at El Arroyo for Bill and Gail Engvall’s Lone Star Classic kick off party. The food and fun went on until the early morning and made it tough waking up on Friday morning, but it was all for a fantastic cause. I put a bid in on one auction and was excited when I heard “Going once! Going twice!…” and then some guy outbid me by walking up with $1000 cash. I’m glad I kept pushing my bid or otherwise the Lone Star Paralysis Foundation wouldn’t have that $1000.
Elise had told me what the party was for but because of the whirl wind of caterings she’s been doing lately, I had forgotten what the Lone Star Classic was until I showed up and she explained it to me again. It is a great foundation and I’m glad that I was able to show up and provide some support and, more importantly, that Elise fed those who’ve donated a lot of time and money to the foundation.
We were also lucky to meet Gail and Bill Engvall and Doug English, among others. It was really a great night.
