Today's Adventure in Texas: Exploring a cemetery that may or may not be connected to our family.

In 2000 I visited here by getting permission to get on a neighboring property and jumping the fence. In 2010, my mid 60 year old father and I jumped a fence and walked a half mile round trip to the cemetery and back across a broken up cotton field.

The area is now being developed, and we went to see if it as any more accessible, and to our surprise, it's now very accessible. We can park in a cult de sac, walk a little ways, and were right there.

Dad felt so good about being there (at 70!) That he's considering trying to clean the place up.

"What hours are you open?"
"Yes."

Today in Texas Food: Chacho's

You don't know how much I miss good fast Mexican food. No, Taco Cabana no longer counts.

That plate of chips and queso? That's a "small."

I approve this message.

Mom: That's the most expensive I've seen.
Jenn, after paying $5/gal for the cheap stuff in Seattle: O_o;

Today in Texas food: Long John Silver's.

Yeah, it's a national chain. It's also nowhere near Washington State.

Jenn: I need to be real careful about where I use the bathroom as a trans woman.
Jenn's GI Tract: Hold my beer.

At least it was a nice quiet evening with the parents. ❤

Last Boost - And so am I.

Even the low end BBQ in Texas beats the high end BBQ in Seattle.

Just hook that watermelon straight into my veins.

Truly, signs of civilization.

AND HER SUBJECTS GREETED HER WARMLY

My friends. I have crossed the Rio Grande. And you know what that means.

THE IMPERATRIX OF THE PEOPLE'S SOCIALIST DEMOCRATIC FEDERATED REPUBLIC OF TEXAS (REFORMED) (CLAIMANT IN EXILE) HAS RETURNED TO HER SUBJECTS.

...for a little while.

Finally off to San Antonio....

A much better view of Los Angeles than when I flew in for Star Trek: The Motion Picture....

My flight attendant is really missing his calling as part of a K-Pop Boy Band
