Houston

Arrived in Houston so looking forward to visiting with Kristin and Chris. Pulled into their driveway at an angle and destroyed the new cable I just bought in Florida that controls the lights on the car when towing. Also my bicycle tire hit and tore it up. So this morning was spent getting a new wire made and getting the tire fixed. The good news is the bicycle wheel wasn't bent and all I needed there was to have it repaired with a new tube. The bad news is our travel budget took a $120 hit.

We had a wonderful day after a morning of repairs. Kristin and Chris treated us to lunch at a wonderful Mexican restaurant called Chuy's. I'm certainly no expert, but this was the best Mexican food I have ever eaten. They even had a white sauce for the chips that tasted a lot like my Alabama white sauce.

The rest of the afternoon was spent looking at amazing homes. Kristin and Chris are leasing a house and are paying $2700 /month but have wisely decided to look into purchasing a home. It was fun looking at really nice homes we could never  afford. Try four bed rooms, three and a half baths,  an office, an exercise room, media room, game room and a master suite with a closet as big as our bed room. Did I mention a three car garage and an outdoor kitchen and a pool?

A very relaxing evening with a cheese and beef dip and yes drinks. Tomorrow, we expect to see a few more homes and then in the evening, Chris is taking me to see the pre-seanon game between the  Houston Texans and the 49ers while  Joy and Kristin share some girl time.  If you happen to view the game on the tv, and they pan the crowd, we'll be the guys having a great time!
