Going down for a weekend with a "special friend." Not looking for anything really over-the-top, but maybe something very unique or eclectic and/or off-the-beaten-path. Memorable for it's being a very different kind of thing, rather than just a candlelight dinner somewhere or whatever. Staying at the Hilton by the Galleria, but open to driving a fair ways. Weather should be fairly nice, just a little chilly, is all.
Problem is, walking is a chore... actually going down to see the Orthopedic Surgeon for the Cowboys, Dan Cooper. She's essentially destroyed her knee, so while she is now walking on it a bit, it's not something she can do a lot of, unless we use the crutches, which she REALLY hates.
I remember a place that was on Triple D... some kinda burger joint down in Deep Ellum. I need to look that up tonight. I actually think going to a play would be cool... I remember going once to a performance of Macbeth 2000 (sorta modernized) in a small theater done up in a storage building I think. Might have been in OKC. It was a small group, but a neat night.
So... any ideas? Whatcha got???
<edit> Oooooh..... just had a thought... maybe a nighttime chopper ride over Dallas. She used to be a flight nurse, she would ADORE that. Hmmmm... or a horse-drawn carriage somewhere romantic. God, I wish I knew Dallas better. Honestly have been wanting to take her shooting for a long long time, but the knee won't support proper stance, really, so that's out for a few more months or we'd go do some full-auto somewhere. <sigh> Maybe we could give it a shot... any good ranges down there comparable to 2A?
