Treking back to south Texas...

We have now been on the road several days heading to the TOT after visiting Jen's mom in Salem Missouri. We visited with the Chapmans in Dallas playing golf and dinner. Then off to Austin for dinner with Barb Horne. Here's Barb's new home on wheels. We had a lot of fun, but had to get out of Austin as the Hog fans invaded. Hookum Horns.
We are in San Antonio with Adam & Cheryl Jones now. Last night after installing a new ceiling fan we had a great dinner prepared by chef Adam. Today it's golf and then off to the valley arriving tonight. Can't wait to get home, see friends and get back to our home church Cornerstone. http://www.cornerstonechurchrgv.com/index.php?op=page&cmsid=1

Catching Up

Ramblings from St. Louis
1. Recently a good friend, Ernie Stabler (on the right) of the "Clark Clan" went to be with the Lord. Ernie was a wonderful gentle hearted man who loved the Lord. This picture was taken a few years ago at the Washington Missouri Ham Fest. It will always be a special memory.

2. Saturday Jenny & I attended a very good financial seminar at Grace church here in St. Louis. (where we met the Lord) The leaders were very open and shared some very good stuff.

3. One of Andy's favorite places to hang is the Loop next to Forrest Park here in St. Louis. It's a very "cool" place. We toured there Sunday and had lunch at Blue Berry Hill. (Chuck Berry's Place) They are known to have the best burgers in the Midwest and I can't argue the point.


















4. Last night David, Dan & I headed over the river to Gateway International Speedway to run the V8 Chopper in the 1/4 mile. Dave completed 4 runs and a good time was had by all. I hope to have a video uploaded soon. Who doesn't love the smell of fuel, rubber and a LOT of loud motors. Here's a Pic of Dave and Dan discussing what to tune the next run to.
