you know,... he's commin here, and we've got all kinds of fun texan things planned for him to do......though i'm sure most of his time he'll want to spend just hanging out with amy,......

i was just thinkin it might make him more comfortable for us to have some 'homey' things here for him

How long is he going to be here? A long time?

I don't know about him, but when I go visit someplace different the last thing I want to do or see is things from where I'm from. I say stick with the Texas stuff and roll with it! He'll have a blast.

****,..i did

after high school i was in europe for three months, some of that was spent in paris,....very little, but some,....and i was so f-ing homesick that i would have sold my soul for a taco and a good margarita,.....

i found neither

savannah · 03-09-2009, 05:20 PM

he'll be here alittle over two weeks,....

i've already told amy he cant come here and not see the hill country,....so,.....i'm thinkin a show at gruene hall, the river, luckenbach

also,...billy bobs, just because its so iconiclly ft worth,....

we've come up with a bunch of options so he can kinda pick and choose while he's here,....he may just want to hole up at amy's house, which is fine too,....

oh and get this,...he's never had mexican food,.....so i'm thinkin joe t garcia's in ft worth,......that way there can be mexican food, and barefooted sundress dancein under christmas lights in march

hey, have you been to galveston lately? i havent since ike,......i'm wonderin if we should make a coastal run too

Hill Country and Mexican food are both a must!! We had some friends from London here for a week and after their first time eating some enchiladas that's all they wanted the rest of the trip. And Hill Country is just gorgeous...I've got to imagine it's starting to look great this time of year.

I haven't been to Galveston since Ike...but really though, it kinda sucks to begin with. It's not all that pretty. Wouldn't you be better of taking him to South Padre or Corpus Christi or something?

i'm goin to pretend that last little big about galvestion wasnt said,...

sure its not the most beautiful beach,...but for historic value its great,....and moody gardens,....and the now washed away balinesse room,....while watchin ike, i cried when it washed away,....

i dunno,....maybe just because its closer,...i've always been fond of it,....when i was in high school, i used to skip out for two or three days, and take naps in my truck on the beach,....load up a few books and maybe my fly rod and i was good to go

anyway,..i digress

i'm also way excited about feeding him barbecue

and i think we should take him campin on the puluxy, but amy says he wont care about dinosaur tracks

ah well

i tend to get overly excited about things

oh oh oh wifey this is kinda funny,....today we were askin him what we needed to get for breakfast and stuff,....he said pancakes 'because dont all americans eat pancakes every morning for breakfast'

(btw,...i saw bluebonnets for the first time this year this weekend,...have you seen any yet?)
