Work and Fun in San Antonio

Since our last blog we have been rather busy with work , having friends and colleagues stay and generally enjoying ourselves.  Here we are on the way to a business meeting San Antonio style.  Butch is the boss, Annette is the Business Manager (Global), Albert in a pirate costume for Halloween and is a professor and Jim is the Director of International Operations for the company.  Well it was Halloween after all.

                     
Following this meeting we were off to Corpus Christie for a conference and here are the boys  enjoying a dinner at a great Corpus Christie restaurant.  The other Jim joined us on this occasion.


At the bar next door to the restaurant the only hand rolling cigar maker in Texas was busy at work.


In between working, there was the opportunity to have dinner on the Riverwalk.


It was the day of Halloween and the staff really got into the act.


As did many of the folks who were walking by.   Plenty of Kodak moments.


Then it was back to work and this what a working weekend looks like at our place.  Yes, things do go better with a beer and a wine.


Annette is also an excellent cook and can multitask very well.  So while she was doing the business plan she instructed the rest of us on dinner preparation.  Here is the group lemon delicious dessert.


We have also been fortunate to have support from Meredith who is an Australian and works for the same company.  She and  her family are currently living in DC for 3 years and flew down for a few days so that we could progress some work that we involved with.  It was great to finally meet as we have spoken over the phone for the last 3 years.   This the farewell snap with Soojin before she returned to DC where it is much colder than it is here.


Meredith stayed with us on her last night in SA and we all enjoyed the evening with Albert, Adrian and Cameron.


Work and fun is a good combination and keeps us on our toes.

Best wishes to all,

Beverley and Ross
