JUNE NEWS.....

I was in San Antonio for 4 nights to be with Gene during his hip replacement. The hospital and my hotel were on the riverwalk. This is on Wednesday...folks were gathering for the Spurs Victory River Parade. A "boat cop"!

Bruce and Kay came and stayed for a couple days to keep me company. They were a great distraction for me. We ate alot of good food.

And here come the Spurs....this was taken from my hotel window. There were about 15 floats. I thought it was dumb, noisey and crowded. Kay and Bruce loved it.

Kay and I ate the La Fonda on Main....ooooo...it was SO good. This restuarant has been there since 1932 and is way more upscale than the other one (which is now closed). This cold avacodo soup had some heat.

Yummy lunch. I think this was just about the best Mexican food I ever ate. Kay agrees...and we've eaten ALOT of Mexican food....

Kay and I wandered over to another hotel where they had some shops on the riverwalk because we wanted to see this store that is blown glass by a San Antonio artist. Her stuff is very Dale Chihuly...It was great!

Shifting gears....here is "Bolt"...the cat that had the arrow in it's head. He's doing great and he's a very sweet guy. The vets in Mexico did a wonderful job!! Thanks to you all (again) who donated to A Pet's Wish!!!

When I got back to Del Rio yesterday there was FOUR INCHES of water in our rain gauge!!! Unheard of....!!! This is the flooding in Acuna, Mexico. They don't have much a drainage system over there. Poor folks....hope they recover quickly and that we don't get any more rain.
