Hola – a beautiful sunny day today, about 75 degrees. Took a walk this afternoon and then hung out around the pond watching a couple of muskrats and noisy birds.
See you soon! Love, Tim

Hi – I watched the movie “Ship of Fools” on TV last night – very good. This motel is across street from the Shamrock! Talked to Fern and she had had a wonderful time with Tom – said he met everyone and they were all so impressed.
Love to you, Va

Well, the Alamo is still here but didn’t exactly match my memories – but the riverwalk is vastly improved and impressive. Found The Landing and will go there one evening. Warm and breezy – not too humid. See you soon!

The Alamo. Originally a chapel attached to SanAntonio de Valero and possibly other missions, the Alamo was the site of a massacre of Texans by Mexican forces in 1836. The word Alamo means a poplar tree or cottonwood.

Greetings from Houston!
Did I send you this recipe last year? Oh well, their selection is limited and we are not in the city. Many meetings with many presentations but did go for a walk this afternoon – sunny mid 80’s. Tonight his Texas barbeque – ole! Now I am resting on my porch overlooking the pond.
Love
