armadilla chilla

We visited San Antonio in May (friend's wedding)


REMEMBER THE ALAMO.....

This is what the signs and the guides chant. Something about cottonwood, missionaries and Davy Crockett - wasn't he one of the Monkees? It was stinking hot, the wedding was at Vicky Carr's house (bride's step mother). She had a framed personal letter from Frank Sinatra in the bathroom along with Preparation H e-zee wipes. I was told they keep under-eye baggage at bay. I don't know which was the better discovery! Can I just share with you my favourite photograph? Does he need a wipe?: This mug was taken before he won the Oscar.

Drank Dos Equis beer and observed the Rolanding lounge singer entertaining us across the waterfall pool. We barely noticed the sprinkler system of DEET repellent hidden in the flowerbeds. They would spray every hour or so at amazing forti-/amplitude and set us running for the house. Surely there was no such chemical invasion indoors
