Wish I was there

A Fun Visit

We have some old friends coming to visit us in a couple of weeks and we are really pumped. I have planned a trip to the Blue Hole, a famous Texas swimming hole. We are also going to go visit a few BBQ joints and may make a trip to Austin. It should be lots of fun.

Now 'scuse me I have to go vacuum.

Rest stop power

Near Guadalupe Mountains a trest stop uses wind power.

Getting re-started

I'm re-starting this blog as a family blog. I'm teaching other members how to post so hopefully you'll start to see a little variety soon.

My New Year's Resolution

My 2009 New Year's resolution is to eat at all 50 Texas BBQ joints mentioned in this Texas Monthly article.

Today I had the brisket at Willie Ray's in Beaumont. Only 49 to go. The brisket tasted more like regular roast beef (very good roast beef) but had no bbq or smoky flavor. The sauce was a little too vinegary for my taste.

The kids really liked the chicken fingers and french fries.

WooHoo!

Lake Charles bridge

The bridge at Lake Charles has handrails that include crossed pistols. It's really cool but not something you'd see somebody do these days.

My birthday is coming

If you were wondering about what to get me, these little campers are now on sale at Gander Mtn.
