We ate at the restaurant at the hotel. We ordered the Pecan Beer that the waiter recommended...Pecan Beer....Beer made with Pecans...It was FANTASTIC
De La Vega's Pecan Beer I will find more to take home! Not that you care

Oh, I care. 512 brewers in Austin makes a pecan porter I dig. You’ve got me realllly curious about this brew.

So a while back we decided to go down to one car. We sold Rita’s and kept mine thinking it’s younger, lower miles, and more economical.

Yeah… late this afternoon the transmission let go.

Modern Fortran (a contradiction in terms) with object-oriented capabilities isn't so bad. I was working with stuff that was effectively '77, but now I'm working with a newer version of the same program that is fully modular. MUCH better. At least until I can convince Biff to re-write a million lines of code in Julia, this will do.

Repairs are more than the car is worth. Looks like I’m car shopping.

Saw a bald eagle yesterday morning. It's not rare, but it's not common either. It was a good day.
