Around San Antonio

 Life is never dull in the White/Wright household and this evening we were  off to see the Eagles concert.  We last saw them in Australia about 10 yeas ago and they still sound great.  We decided to go in style so our favorite limo service provided our transport.   Kristi, a college friend of Albert's flew from St Louis to join us and we had a grand time.


 Beverley's work often sees her traveling to various counties in Texas.  The County of Goliad is very historic and it has an old Spanish Presidio and Mission with a functioning chapel that dates back to 1722.  It also has some  interesting eating places such as the Hanging Tree restaurant.


Dr Larry Morning Star who Beverley frequently travels with enjoys life and was delighted to pretend that he had shot and skinned this loin.


This restaurant features many mounted beasts on the walls.


We will post more on historic Goliad at a later time.

Among the many and very diverse eating establishments we frequent is a traditional Texas Diner called Abel's where meat loaf is a daily staple.


Other examples of their fare includes fish and chips and grilled chicken.  Please note the size of the chicken.  Well it is Texas.


Another evening saw us at the Fish City Grill.  Arm wrestling is one way of sorting out who pays the tip. Here Faythe gave Greg a run for his money.


Life is to be enjoyed.
Cheers Ross and Beverley
