Lester, please start by having the surgery on your right shoulder early this summer 😢 I am feeling your pain. It is absolutely no fun having pain and no mobility 😢😢😢 I know to well, I had both of mine done a year apart. Lester she loves, I'm sure she would love for you not to work so dang much doing fences. I know you are dang good at it, but it will tear your shoulders and arms up real bad.
Lester Eugene Morrow Jr you're a fine looking, sexy true Texan Gentleman and Jami's a lucky lady! The brace makes you look what you are a hard working man that lets nothing hold you back. Jami loves you and always will! Glad you at least enjoyed your meal and you've another road trip adventure as a part 2! Love and blessings Lester and thanks for letting me tag along! Catch you on the next one! ❣️🤠🙏🤠❣️
What a well thought out response to Lester’s concerns!!🙏❤️ Lester you are a virile strong healthy proud handsome kind passionate man and Jami loves you and I believe she always will even as you age just as I believe you will always love Jami even as she ages!!! Age is a number and is meaningless!! Stay strong, stay positive, healthy! I love you. ❤❤❤
Lester nothing wrong with strapping 😂❤ PawPaw is old but still hot 🔥 ❤ Seriously he is like a Pops to me and I love him. I'm your age Lester, if you as handsome as Pops at his age good on you😂 😚 Love you all xxx 👍
I just turned 65 2 weeks ago and at age 27 with 3 kids under 4 I got Lyme disease from a tick and fibromyalgia. I have not had a pain free day since but I do my best. I retired at 63. That’s as long as I could hold out as a RN. ❤️❤️❤️
Lester I just turned 73 on April 21. I have had 20 surgeries in my life. I have 2 total knee replacement. I keep going! No reason to stop. Just do what you have too. ❤️
From an orthopedic warrior, the longer you put off surgery the harder the recovery. We don’t recover as fast as we use too. 80 broken bones, 5 joints redone, and 28 Othro surgeries. Love Atwood’s.
Oh my goodness, 80 broken bones! You poor thing. I feel for you, I live with chronic pain from failed back surgery & Fibromyalgia. I can't imagine what you live with.
@jakesbel8237 what is DES? My mom got German Measles while pregnant with my sister & she was born profoundly deaf, blind in one eye & a hole in her heart. She was only 4lbs at birth.

As they say, old age never comes alone Lester, it brings along its relatives, the creaks and groans and aches and pains - but you’re not old yet Lester. It’s just your body has seen many years of hard, physical labor and that takes a toll. On a positive note, sometimes when you get more to some of our ages, you'll find we talk about and sometimes yep, we compare our aches and pains and we talk the weather, that’s can be a hot topic for us too, lol, so you are slowly being edged into future conversations that you may have with Jami, Dan & Lou, sister Kim, Tina & Rob, Jason at CogHill, etc, etc, because God willing, you will all reach that golden age of reaching ‘old’ one day, lol and when you reach it, you’ll have some experience in how to chit-chat over a nice cup of coffee...😊
Lester, that shoulder brace looks really cool. You shouldn’t be ashamed. Jami loves you and believe me, there is nothing not completely 100% masculine about you! 🥰😘
Oh Lester! This is life! A few years ago I had a freak accident. I was up on a little step stool hanging a picture. All of a sudden that little step stool broke and I fell straight down. My left arm hit the door and my right arm hit the side of the TV. Huge bruises! Little later I tripped and fell and hit the back of a chair with my left shoulder-now there's damage from the 2 falls. 90% tear of my rotator cuff. Surgery fixed it and I'm good now!!
I always say that I so wish I could tell my parents now "I understand." When I was in my 30's and they were in their 80's, I truly had no clue of their suffering that they spoke about on a regular basis. 😢
Lester your people & her people pain & injuries are part of life. Went to my doctor today . I am 73 and have spondylosis, diabetes, osteoarthritis, acid reflux, back pain, HBP and abdominal aorta arteriosclerosis. It comes with the territory. You deal with & try to control it. But the good news is that I am here and try not to complain about the aches & pains. ❤❤
@@ImaSurvivorSanctuaryLester if Jami God forbid had ended up disfigured when the horse kicked her I know in my heart it wouldn't of changed a bit of your love for her. The eyes of love see better then our faulty human ones . Besides I see how her eyes sparkle when she looks at you😊 AND you are a very handsome young Man if I was younger I'd have to confess to my Pastor lol
I like Golden Corral too. I haven’t been there in a long time either! I like their breakfast especially! Don’t be embarrassed! I love the vegetables as well!😊
Lester I understand (I'm 70) as we get older we have pain popping up all over. Then when we drive or ride that pain hits harder. Then it takes a few days to recover from the road trip. Or overnight visits with family. Enjoy each day! One Day at a Time! Don't overdue it makes the pain worse. One has to know how much work to do at a time. And take a break😊❤❤
My husband was 20 years older than me. While he was very ill, long term, the only time taking care of him got on my nerves or felt like a "burden", was the times he got into a "poor Me" spell, and whined & refused to do "anything". Good you're moving around & continuing to do things, it keeps your body moving. Now, accept help when it is offered, ask for help when you could use it. 😊
You are not alone Lester. All the work you do around the properties takes a toll. You won’t enjoy the PT after you’re surgery but you WILL BE HAPPY YOU DID IT!!
Hi Lester & Jamie, Love you both & your videos,.... I too have a torn in my right shoulder, gonna have surgery next month,... So I knew the pain,... (60 yrs) N.M...❤❤🤗
I'm glad the Golden Corral came through! The closest one to me is halfway to Atlanta! So it's been a great while for me, too. When I worked for the Mental Health agency here in Ga., I used to take the team for lunch there, birthdays, Fridays, etc. So affordable and delicious.
Idk if Atwoods puts Tractor Supply to shame.... I have shopped both, still shop both, just depends on what I need. 😅 Thanks for taking us along on the road trip. Don't worry about the brace. Those of us that are old enough get it... those that are not will soon enough! I'm Jamie's age and you aren't old.
You are what you are and you is what you is I am 76 years old. I have the same problem with you what you’re having I have a torn rotator cup so I have to strap up so hope yours heals quicker than mine younger than me but glad you’re awake. Some people didn’t wake up this morning we’re.
Oh, gosh, I've learned that I need to do what I am comfortable with and can't worry about what people think. It's kinda sad that I thought that I would get to travel more once my kids were grown ... never anticipating that I wouldnt want to anymore by that time!
My parents used to winter in Texas and they LOVED Golden Corral. They have both passed away now but this video brought back some wonderful memories for me, including physical limitations because they had some, too. I am 62 and am blessed to have none.
I so understand dealing with pain. I have chronic pain from a failed back surgery, amongst other issues. I'm the person that drives around in the summer with the air running & my heated seats on 😂. You do what you gotta do to remain comfortable!
Shared road trips are one of my favourite things, Lester. Don't think of it as a disaster. Think of it as an adventure, and laugh when things don't go as planned. Life is far too short to let those things get you down. Enjoy the company of that amazing woman who loves you to the moon and back. Much love to both of you, and thank you for bringing us along on your adventure. 😁
Hi Lester…. I’ve been following you and Jami and EVERYONE else since the absolute beginning and I simply admire you all for genuine honesty and integrity. You are all so good to each other, your animals, friends and everyone or thing in general. I love y’all for that. I know you suffer with your shoulder. It is a very painful thing. Please please please consider doing to surgery. I’ve had three separate surgeries on both my shoulder and believe me…. If it were as painful a recovery as we would imagine I never would have had three of the surgeries. It really isn’t as bad as you imagine. If you can suffer with the no surgery pain you can handle the recovery pain. You can do it! I have faith and confidence in you. Pull out that man card. Be the strong Longhorn Lester that you truly are and can be. Good luck! Love to you and Jami. Thank you for being the most wonderful people that you are.
I never thought about how far ahead weathereise South Texas is! We aren't even planting in Lubbock yet till Mothers Day typically! Everything is beautiful in your yard!❤
Lester look at all the fences you have built and all the work you do! Very physical work so don’t feel it’s just age! You are amazing for all the strenuous work you do!
Been there Lester I am 52 and have had several surgeries on both of my shoulders and I know you are sacrificing for your love. That’s all that matters. ❤🙏🏻
We used to have several Golden Corral restaurants in Minnesota. Now there are 2 in the metro area. We are getting a Tractor Supply store. I m looking forward to that. Lester ..it's your lucky day.😂
I’m turning 55 this coming July. I’ve been through losing the love of my life in 2020 so terrible grief. Then I had a cancer spot on my pancreas and had half of my pancreas removed. No cancer now! BUT the last 4.5 years have taken their toll on my body. I literally feel myself slowing down and becoming “old”. I too have a bad shoulder, all kinds of aches and pains everywhere. So you are not alone. And Jami will love you forever Lester! Even when you are feeling your age kick your ass.
Lester it's nothing to be ashamed of I need total knee replacement in both knees. And my left shoulder rotator cuff does the same as you it is so painful. The work you do is not easy work. It eventually takes its toll on you. Nothing to be ashamed of your hard-working man
Thank you, Lester 🥰 I'm glad you enjoyed your trip/meal out with Jami 😘 Don't worry about having aches and pains, I've been strapping up parts of my body since I was 30 years old, and now at 60+ I have many more parts strapped up and often all at the same time these days 😂😂 I think Jami already knows all your aches and pains and knows just how much hard work you've done to get them (just one of the many reasons why she loves you)❤ Have a lovely, relaxing evening, Lester 🥰🥰
Lester you getting older but that doesn't mean you LOOK old. It just means with all your aches and pains and your "extra gear" that you are one hell of a hard worker. That you are NOT scared of working. Jami is PROUD of you just the way you are and you can see that.. This world needs more guys like you that are not scared to work and that love with their entire heart! I enjoy the little outings with you and Jami :) Have an AWESOME day!
Hello Lester, Jamie just got a big smile on my face when I seen you video pop up😊 but sometimes it doesn’t matter if you’re young or old we’re people and all of us have issues Lester. Don’t worry about it. We love you. Monday here in Michigan, April 23. I love golden corral. They got everything a variety of everything and their food seems to be very fresh. I love it there.
Lester, where your arm brace we don’t care you need to have that to make your arm feel better. We all have our achy spots. Mine is my knee like your dad my knee just jams up when I sit down and then I have to start walking to get it going again And Ginger and Boswella are great help. I take it morning and night. It reduces inflammation. It really helps during the day so I can function. I’ve tried knee braces, but they just stiffen my leg but you have a nice arm brace. You should wear it to relieve the pressure. We love you just the way you are.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lester as soon as I turned 40. I started going down hill I got sick in February the same month of my birthday come that June my Dr. took me completely off work and because of my problems I was having I was not going too be able to go back to work!! So I definitely understand what you are talking about !!!! From McPherson,Ks. Thanks for sharing your babies and all your animals ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lester ur an awsome guy,,so ur shoulder pains and knee aches u don’t let the pee pats that u read of get u Down u keep a good heart and positive attitude
Lester, you do what you have to do to get through day by day. Please think about getting one of your shoulders done - it ain't gonna go away sweetie. Glad you got your fix for Golden Corral - I love that place too. Love you guys.
Lester, Jami loves you and will be by your side no matter what. She has been through a lot already herself. You are there for each other. Have no fear, she is going to have her aches and pains too, and will need your support as well. Golden Corral is a good place to eat. I have only eaten at one when I visited friends in Oklahoma. That was my go to place to eat every evening.
Lester, you may think or feel old, but to us viewers we love you for who you are! There's nothing wrong with having to wear your shoulder and your knee brace. You are very lucky to have Jami. She's a beautiful gal! We used to have Golden Corral here in Iowa City, Iowa. But they closed it down in the late 80' or early 90's. So, we don't have that anymore, but it was a good place to eat! Have a blessed evening! ❤
I so so sympathize! I'm on a walker when I'm out and about, and I still can't walk more than like 15 minutes without resting. Sciatica is horrible, back, legs, arms, shoulders and neck, I feel like a walking ruin, burnt out and full of cobwebs! Glad you got a nice meal at least! ❤❤❤❤❤
Oh, Lester, getting older is definitely not for the faint of heart! I am 61 going on 62, and I swear each year it gets harder to get things done! I do wish I had the energy I had at 50! 🤔💖😉 Hopefully, the next time you folks head out, you can give us a proper tour. I don't think we have an Attwoods here in east Idaho. There is a small Tractor Supply in Pocatello, but mostly folks just head to Cal-Ranch for their farm supplies. 💖💖💖
I love you Lester for revealing the truth when we get older. She is 10 years younger that's a big deal when it comes to pain. That's why I had to stop everything I used to do, it even hurts driving in a car. I'm sure she appreciates it because I don't know any men that would do all this when they're dealing with pain and the frustration of getting older. Jamie you're obsessed with antiques vintage retro, it's not a bad thing it's just we grew up with this stuff we need to move on😅
Lester Jami loves you for your heart and the person you are. You don’t look old, and yes you have some health issues but so does everyone. You have an amazing ability to get up and go and ignore your pain. I fully understand that need to get up and start you day and keep going. Love you guys, blessings💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Don't worry, lester! I always try telling my elderly neighbor - who's 86, and in so much better health than I am at barely 40, that it's got nothing to do with age anymore. ROFL! And that's why I always check online and make sure that stores are indeed open whenever I plan a trip outside. Glad the Golden Corral was at least open. Lunch looked really yummy!
I understand your situation with your rotator. I not only put a pillow under my arm as you do but slept with one to elevate shoulder. Once I had surgery it eventually was OK.
Oh the “Golden Years “! Bah humbug!😂😂😍😍😍❤️🐾🐾🐾 Ain’t 59 fun, hate getting closer to Humble.🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️. Not to crazy about Golden Coral in Humble, always way to crowded when we go and always on weekends. Glad you got your tummies full after an afternoon of disappointments.❤️❤️🐾🐾
Lester and Jami, I get it and am right there with you. The aches and pains of aging aren’t fun. I say use whatever you can to take the edge off the pain. Oh and Lester, in case you didn’t already know, Jami loves you, aches and pains and all. Road trip! Yay! Those are more fun than taking a long vacation.
I love the way you take care of each other ❤ You don't give up on animals when they get old, why treat you any different? You would never toss Gigi and Pawpaw in the old pile. ❤❤
Lufkin is where our Church Organization has our camp grounds there. Golden Corral is good but cost more $ than I can eat. I went on a road trip up I-59/69 from Houston to Livingston to the Antique Emporium. It was fun.
This is the truth Lester: Aging is not for the faint of heart!!! 😂 I have the exact same brace and an almost identical pillow...we're practically twins! This is also truth: Our beautiful Jami adores you because of your heart of gold, which only gets brighter and more valuable with age!! 🌺🌠Janice
Lester, I feel your aches and pains - we got them different ways, but they both add up to years and years of hard work. And that road trip wasn't a total bust - you at least got to stop at your favorite restaurant 😊 And speaking of which, when you get a little time, Google Shady Maple Smorgasbord - it does have a good reputation 😉 I did watch some of her part of the road trip & when you guys got to the 1 place that she wanted to go to, if I had been with you guys, I would've been sitting on that bench next to you, or waiting in the car. All in all, you guys had beautiful 😍 weather for the trip! Take care and I'll catch you on the next video 😉!
Hi Lester. Glad you had a great time even though it wasn’t doing exactly what you both wanted like you say an excuse to go back again. Lunch looked yummy. Understand what it’s like when the body says it don’t like that and we grin and bear it until we can’t no more. Hope all good and not too sore I know you’ve spoken about surgery. So please look after yourself. Take care lots of love and prayers God Bless. 🙏💕🤠
Lester I LOVE Golden Corral there's one bout hour away everytime I go that direction I make sure that's where I'm going for lunch. 😋 😋 😋. Great time together even if you both struck out. 😊
Howdy you all. At least you don’t have to use a wheelchair or walker. Take care and enjoy getting around while you can. Your poor dad’s knees. God bless and stay safe.
We used to have a Golden Corral, and I loved the food. Don’t worry about your shoulder gear, we all have to do something. I can’t travel much anymore either.
Hi Lester, repetitive movement of the joints can get you at an age, I’ve had problems with my shoulders and back for over 30 years from carrying my maybe 70lb daughter in and out of her wheelchair. We deal with it and carry on. Your meal looked amazing, we don’t have that restaurant up here. I always check to see if the place I’m going to will be open, saves me the trip if it’s closed. Looking forward to another video of your trip there.❤️❤️
Lester you are not old- you never relax and work so much between 3 properties! No wonder you hurt! I get the shoulder thing- I had one shoulder replacement, 5 yrs ago and now my other one needs done, but I can’t get it done because I am taking care of my Mom. It’s hard doing manual labor when you are in pain. That antique store that was closed, looked really cool! Hope you had a good time regardless of everything being closed! At least you got to eat at Golden Corral!
Ohhh Lester, I think Jamie is in for the long haul no matter what! ❤. Chik fi le here is closed Sundays because the owners believe employees should be with family & go to church on the holy day. I LOVE our Golden Corral, clean & hot fresh food! Prices went up some but worth it! Glad you got your food place in, but you got it Next time!! 🤗❤️
Lester my hubby has had the shoulder surgery. He’s had neck surgery and a perforated colon. So like I tell him suck it up and get it done. lol I’ve taking care of him with them all. I know one day will be my time and he will take care of me. Thank you for all you do. Take care of yourself.
Atwoods home office is in my hometown. My son In law was a buyer there before moving to Ft Worth with a job offer he couldnt refuse. So now my grand babies are Texans. I gotta say the lobster salad is my fav at the GC.
OH Lester, dont you know that old saying “growing old together?” This beautiful lady is going to follow you into the horizon no matter what.
Well said.
❤❤
So beautifully said....♥️

You got that right Marsha! 😂
If I had known I wouldn't of done it 🤣🤣
You're exactly right, that's what I always say, everyday is a new challenge. Whoever said the golden years are the best is full of it 🤨
My late husband said the Golden Years was made for the doctor's and Pharmacy's.
You can say *that* again!😝

Exactly 💯
This lady isn't "rolling" her eyes...Golden Corral is awesome!
Agreed
Wish we still had Golden Corral!! Enjoy!!
I know that you’re at least 10 years younger than me. I’m 63. I’ve been dealing with aches and pain since I was about 50 so I understand completely.
Forty was the changing point, 50 seems like I started really going downhill!!
64 the first to go were my knees
Don't even get me started on the knees!! It's amazing!!
I'm 63 also cyndi. Just turned 63 on the 16th. 😁

Lester I just turned 73 on April 21. I have had 20 surgeries in my life. I have 2 total knee replacement. I keep going! No reason to stop. Just do what you have too. ❤️
That's what you get Lester for laughing about Jami's store being closed. Your store was closed too and the look on your face was priceless 😂😂
😂😂😂!!!
I love the Golden corral! We hardly ever go, but it’s a treat when we do. Sorry about your shoulder Lester . But you are a farmer. That says it all!
Farm life isn’t all that easy but it’s rewarding ❤

God love you Lester. It sure sucks to get old. I can so relate to you. You try to make yourself as comfortable as you possibly can.
My parents used to winter in Texas and they LOVED Golden Corral. They have both passed away now but this video brought back some wonderful memories for me, including physical limitations because they had some, too. I am 62 and am blessed to have none.
I love golden corral we don’t have any of them around here anymore. They’ve all closed down in this area since Covid.
Sorry to hear that Cyndi!
The look in younse eyes when you look at each other speaks volumes ❤❤
Thank you for taking us along on your road trip!! Looking forward to Part 2 when Atwoods and the This & That Resale store is open.
Shoulder injuries are the worst! I broke a bone in mine a few years ago so I feel your pain.
I so understand dealing with pain. I have chronic pain from a failed back surgery, amongst other issues. I'm the person that drives around in the summer with the air running & my heated seats on 😂. You do what you gotta do to remain comfortable!
Shared road trips are one of my favourite things, Lester. Don't think of it as a disaster. Think of it as an adventure, and laugh when things don't go as planned. Life is far too short to let those things get you down. Enjoy the company of that amazing woman who loves you to the moon and back. Much love to both of you, and thank you for bringing us along on your adventure. 😁
Hi Lester…. I’ve been following you and Jami and EVERYONE else since the absolute beginning and I simply admire you all for genuine honesty and integrity. You are all so good to each other, your animals, friends and everyone or thing in general. I love y’all for that.
I know you suffer with your shoulder. It is a very painful thing. Please please please consider doing to surgery. I’ve had three separate surgeries on both my shoulder and believe me…. If it were as painful a recovery as we would imagine I never would have had three of the surgeries. It really isn’t as bad as you imagine. If you can suffer with the no surgery pain you can handle the recovery pain. You can do it! I have faith and confidence in you. Pull out that man card. Be the strong Longhorn Lester that you truly are and can be. Good luck! Love to you and Jami. Thank you for being the most wonderful people that you are.
I never thought about how far ahead weathereise South Texas is! We aren't even planting in Lubbock yet till Mothers Day typically! Everything is beautiful in your yard!❤
Lester look at all the fences you have built and all the work you do! Very physical work so don’t feel it’s just age! You are amazing for all the strenuous work you do!
Been there Lester I am 52 and have had several surgeries on both of my shoulders and I know you are sacrificing for your love. That’s all that matters. ❤🙏🏻
We used to have several Golden Corral restaurants in Minnesota. Now there are 2 in the metro area. We are getting a Tractor Supply store. I m looking forward to that. Lester ..it's your lucky day.😂
Thanks for taking us along with you and Jamie!
Get your shoulder repaired Lester…my husband has had both repaired. It takes a bit of time, but you have help for the animals.
I’m turning 55 this coming July. I’ve been through losing the love of my life in 2020 so terrible grief. Then I had a cancer spot on my pancreas and had half of my pancreas removed. No cancer now! BUT the last 4.5 years have taken their toll on my body. I literally feel myself slowing down and becoming “old”. I too have a bad shoulder, all kinds of aches and pains everywhere. So you are not alone. And Jami will love you forever Lester! Even when you are feeling your age kick your ass.
Lester it's nothing to be ashamed of I need total knee replacement in both knees. And my left shoulder rotator cuff does the same as you it is so painful. The work you do is not easy work. It eventually takes its toll on you. Nothing to be ashamed of your hard-working man
Thank you, Lester 🥰
I'm glad you enjoyed your trip/meal out with Jami 😘
Don't worry about having aches and pains, I've been strapping up parts of my body since I was 30 years old, and now at 60+ I have many more parts strapped up and often all at the same time these days 😂😂
I think Jami already knows all your aches and pains and knows just how much hard work you've done to get them (just one of the many reasons why she loves you)❤
Have a lovely, relaxing evening, Lester 🥰🥰
😍😍 Great video Lester, thanks for sharing!!
Lester you getting older but that doesn't mean you LOOK old. It just means with all your aches and pains and your "extra gear" that you are one hell of a hard worker. That you are NOT scared of working. Jami is PROUD of you just the way you are and you can see that.. This world needs more guys like you that are not scared to work and that love with their entire heart! I enjoy the little outings with you and Jami :) Have an AWESOME day!
Hello Lester, Jamie just got a big smile on my face when I seen you video pop up😊 but sometimes it doesn’t matter if you’re young or old we’re people and all of us have issues Lester. Don’t worry about it. We love you. Monday here in Michigan, April 23. I love golden corral. They got everything a variety of everything and their food seems to be very fresh. I love it there.
Lester, where your arm brace we don’t care you need to have that to make your arm feel better. We all have our achy spots. Mine is my knee like your dad my knee just jams up when I sit down and then I have to start walking to get it going again And Ginger and Boswella are great help. I take it morning and night. It reduces inflammation. It really helps during the day so I can function. I’ve tried knee braces, but they just stiffen my leg but you have a nice arm brace. You should wear it to relieve the pressure. We love you just the way you are.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel you Lester. Just this morning I told my son I've had enough of growing old and want to stop now.
Me too, lol.
My day is already here. I got the same thing. Same shoulder to Lester. Prayers with you, buddy.
Lester as soon as I turned 40. I started going down hill I got sick in February the same month of my birthday come that June my Dr. took me completely off work and because of my problems I was having I was not going too be able to go back to work!! So I definitely understand what you are talking about !!!! From McPherson,Ks. Thanks for sharing your babies and all your animals ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lester ur an awsome guy,,so ur shoulder pains and knee aches u don’t let the pee pats that u read of get u Down u keep a good heart and positive attitude
It must be Monday!!😂 when Steve and I travel, we find a lot of restaurants that are not open on Monday 😂😂
I know how you feel Lester. I'm not a spring chicken anymore either. And I'm not aging gracefully 🥹 But we just gotta keep on keeping on😁 God bless 💜
Lester, you do what you have to do to get through day by day. Please think about getting one of your shoulders done - it ain't gonna go away sweetie. Glad you got your fix for Golden Corral - I love that place too. Love you guys.
Glad to see you finally put a little green on your plate the second round Lester! ❤😂
Lester, Jami loves you and will be by your side no matter what. She has been through a lot already herself. You are there for each other. Have no fear, she is going to have her aches and pains too, and will need your support as well. Golden Corral is a good place to eat. I have only eaten at one when I visited friends in Oklahoma. That was my go to place to eat every evening.
Lester, I can surely relate. My left shoulder has been killing me! Ugh!
Lester, you may think or feel old, but to us viewers we love you for who you are! There's nothing wrong with having to wear your shoulder and your knee brace. You are very lucky to have Jami. She's a beautiful gal!
We used to have Golden Corral here in Iowa City, Iowa. But they closed it down in the late 80' or early 90's. So, we don't have that anymore, but it was a good place to eat! Have a blessed evening! ❤
I'll be waiting for the continue of Your road trip...
I enjoyed watching You & Jami... Nancy
I so so sympathize! I'm on a walker when I'm out and about, and I still can't walk more than like 15 minutes without resting. Sciatica is horrible, back, legs, arms, shoulders and neck, I feel like a walking ruin, burnt out and full of cobwebs! Glad you got a nice meal at least! ❤❤❤❤❤
Oh, Lester, getting older is definitely not for the faint of heart! I am 61 going on 62, and I swear each year it gets harder to get things done! I do wish I had the energy I had at 50! 🤔💖😉
Hopefully, the next time you folks head out, you can give us a proper tour. I don't think we have an Attwoods here in east Idaho. There is a small Tractor Supply in Pocatello, but mostly folks just head to Cal-Ranch for their farm supplies. 💖💖💖
I'm "her people" in the mornings and "your people" in the afternoons. =) Love Golden Corral! We have those here in SW Missouri as well as Atwoods.
I love you Lester for revealing the truth when we get older. She is 10 years younger that's a big deal when it comes to pain. That's why I had to stop everything I used to do, it even hurts driving in a car. I'm sure she appreciates it because I don't know any men that would do all this when they're dealing with pain and the frustration of getting older. Jamie you're obsessed with antiques vintage retro, it's not a bad thing it's just we grew up with this stuff we need to move on😅
Lester Jami loves you for your heart and the person you are. You don’t look old, and yes you have some health issues but so does everyone. You have an amazing ability to get up and go and ignore your pain. I fully understand that need to get up and start you day and keep going. Love you guys, blessings💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Great video! Lester I'm glad you both enjoyed your lunch!😂❤
Thank you 😋
Don't worry, lester! I always try telling my elderly neighbor - who's 86, and in so much better health than I am at barely 40, that it's got nothing to do with age anymore.
ROFL! And that's why I always check online and make sure that stores are indeed open whenever I plan a trip outside.
Glad the Golden Corral was at least open. Lunch looked really yummy!
Well DANG, Lester….i am the same way!! My knees, my hips, and my shoulders, darn they hurt!! 🥴😞😩❤
My diseased hubby was 9 years older. And that means what ! Life is what you make it. Blessings to ISS 🙏🫶🙏🫶
I understand your situation with your rotator. I not only put a pillow under my arm as you do but slept with one to elevate shoulder. Once I had surgery it eventually was OK.
Oh the “Golden Years “! Bah humbug!😂😂😍😍😍❤️🐾🐾🐾 Ain’t 59 fun, hate getting closer to Humble.🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️. Not to crazy about Golden Coral in Humble, always way to crowded when we go and always on weekends. Glad you got your tummies full after an afternoon of disappointments.❤️❤️🐾🐾
Lester my days been coming the last decade! Love y'all ❤
Lester and Jami, I get it and am right there with you. The aches and pains of aging aren’t fun. I say use whatever you can to take the edge off the pain. Oh and Lester, in case you didn’t already know, Jami loves you, aches and pains and all. Road trip! Yay! Those are more fun than taking a long vacation.
I love the way you take care of each other ❤ You don't give up on animals when they get old, why treat you any different? You would never toss Gigi and Pawpaw in the old pile. ❤❤
Love to you both.. enjoy the 50+ zone... I feel your pain
It's all part of getting older Lester. Get used to it 😂. Love you guys ❤️
Lufkin is where our Church Organization has our camp grounds there. Golden Corral is good but cost more $ than I can eat. I went on a road trip up I-59/69 from Houston to Livingston to the Antique Emporium. It was fun.
Jamie will love you no matter what 😊growing old together is a blessing 😊
This is the truth Lester: Aging is not for the faint of heart!!! 😂 I have the exact same brace and an almost identical pillow...we're practically twins! This is also truth: Our beautiful Jami adores you because of your heart of gold, which only gets brighter and more valuable with age!! 🌺🌠Janice
Lester, I feel your aches and pains - we got them different ways, but they both add up to years and years of hard work. And that road trip wasn't a total bust - you at least got to stop at your favorite restaurant 😊 And speaking of which, when you get a little time, Google Shady Maple Smorgasbord - it does have a good reputation 😉 I did watch some of her part of the road trip & when you guys got to the 1 place that she wanted to go to, if I had been with you guys, I would've been sitting on that bench next to you, or waiting in the car. All in all, you guys had beautiful 😍 weather for the trip! Take care and I'll catch you on the next video 😉!
Lester I love and miss the Golden Corral! While living in Round Rock we loved eating there. Boy I miss it.
Hi Lester. Glad you had a great time even though it wasn’t doing exactly what you both wanted like you say an excuse to go back again. Lunch looked yummy. Understand what it’s like when the body says it don’t like that and we grin and bear it until we can’t no more. Hope all good and not too sore I know you’ve spoken about surgery. So please look after yourself. Take care lots of love and prayers God Bless. 🙏💕🤠
Lester I LOVE Golden Corral there's one bout hour away everytime I go that direction I make sure that's where I'm going for lunch. 😋 😋 😋. Great time together even if you both struck out. 😊
Yes Lester Jami’s plate looks healthy,Your plate looks like it needs a Dudewipe 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Howdy you all. At least you don’t have to use a wheelchair or walker. Take care and enjoy getting around while you can. Your poor dad’s knees. God bless and stay safe.
I loved Golden Coral, ours closed down years ago. Sorry yalls trip didn't go well, there's always next time ❤
We used to have a Golden Corral, and I loved the food. Don’t worry about your shoulder gear, we all have to do something. I can’t travel much anymore either.
Hi Lester, repetitive movement of the joints can get you at an age, I’ve had problems with my shoulders and back for over 30 years from carrying my maybe 70lb daughter in and out of her wheelchair. We deal with it and carry on. Your meal looked amazing, we don’t have that restaurant up here. I always check to see if the place I’m going to will be open, saves me the trip if it’s closed. Looking forward to another video of your trip there.❤️❤️
When I performed with Storybook Theatre of Texas, we loved going to Lufkin. There are so many neat places in Texas to visit.
Lester you are not old- you never relax and work so much between 3 properties! No wonder you hurt! I get the shoulder thing- I had one shoulder replacement, 5 yrs ago and now my other one needs done, but I can’t get it done because I am taking care of my Mom. It’s hard doing manual labor when you are in pain. That antique store that was closed, looked really cool! Hope you had a good time regardless of everything being closed! At least you got to eat at Golden Corral!
At least we got to eat.. 😂
Great video old man 🤣🤣
Ohhh Lester, I think Jamie is in for the long haul no matter what! ❤. Chik fi le here is closed Sundays because the owners believe employees should be with family & go to church on the holy day. I LOVE our Golden Corral, clean & hot fresh food! Prices went up some but worth it! Glad you got your food place in, but you got it Next time!! 🤗❤️
Lester my hubby has had the shoulder surgery. He’s had neck surgery and a perforated colon. So like I tell him suck it up and get it done. lol I’ve taking care of him with them all. I know one day will be my time and he will take care of me. Thank you for all you do. Take care of yourself.
Atwoods home office is in my hometown. My son In law was a buyer there before moving to Ft Worth with a job offer he couldnt refuse. So now my grand babies are Texans. I gotta say the lobster salad is my fav at the GC.
