Break down! (November 27, 2925)

After Thanksgiving lunch with Greg, we were on our way to the bees, nearly to Georgetown, when Max lost power. Tom was able to get across a few lanes of traffic to the shoulder before Max died, thank goodness!
 

As luck would have it, a TxDOT Hero was behind us. They monitor I-35 for breakdowns. He pulled over, set up cones, and took a look under the hood for an easy fix such as a dead battery. No go. He advised us to call a tow truck.

Couldn't believe how easy it was to get a tow truck to our favorite mechanic Dan at Elite Auto in Austin. We got to see Greg again. He met us at Dan's and took us home. Thanks, Greg!

Happy Thanksgiving! (November 27, 2025)

 Okay, the Pilgrims didn't celebrate with Mediterranean food, but we did! We met Greg and Tammy at Dimassi's for Thanksgiving dinner.

We did have turkey with our pita bread, hummus, tabouli, and falafel.

So many delicious choices!

Danny on the "All is Calm" advertiser (November 26, 2025)

 Danny's Irish and German accents were big pluses at the "All is Calm" auditions at Stage West in Fort Worth. Danny made the cast and was featured in the flyer for the play! The play commemorates the moment that British and German soldiers left their Great War trenches on Christmas Eve to sing carols and play soccer. 

No, no Colette! (Friday, November 21, 2025)

If we don't serve her food on the buffet fast enough, she jumps on the forbidden island to eat.

She can balance and eat at the same time.

 

Happy Thanksgiving week! (November 21, 2025)

 Anjanette, Fox, and I met at the Velvet Taco on Burnet Road before their road trip to Los Angeles with Jay and Laura. We didn't try the Thanksgiving taco with turkey, dressing, and cranberry sauce.
