San Antonio gave me a warmth welcome



Few pictures from the Alamo. This place was full of careless people.

Wow that is hot. Here in your neck of the woods, the temperatures have been in the mid 70's to barely 80. We even had a bit of rain last night.

Hope you had a good time. There is a lot of history in that old place, now just mostly a tourist stop. If you can see through it, you will understand why many Texans feel the way they do about the State.

Glad you got to see the LBJ and the GHWB. If you ever get back down visit the Nimitz Museum, etc in Fredericksburg.

You did get by Luckenbach, right?

Yes, yes, yuk it up Kittah. By my calculations, you have about 3 months to do so before things get a bit frosty up Edmonton way.....

Yes Fricassee even if it's only three months (more like 5 but who's counting) I will enjoy every minute of it. Don't forget, I will always offer you cooling tips for your convenience

I'll give you a call on Friday (maybe). I have to be at home due to the wife's surgery, so I have to play it by ear.

Its actually cooler in El Paso. It was 100F by the time I entered the Hotel.

I made it to El Paso very fast, thanks to the "80 MPH speed limit"; Betty Boop is a bad girl you know.

I have it on good authority that Pete will drink a Corona given the opportunity.
