Last weekend was in Houston to celebrate high school graduation for niece and nephew Courtney and Matthew Scott. It was a great graduation party - Kathleen and John had lasagna for Karls and Lingers and perservered even when they found out their oven was not working and they had to take the lasagna to the neighbors to bake! Nice neighbors!
Courtney, going to Texas A&M, and Matthew, going to The University, seemed pleased with the computers they rec'd as a combined family gift. It's great to see that they have turned in to such personable young adults - it will be interesting to hear about their experiences at college. And congratulations to Mom, Kathleen.
Enjoyed seeing all the family and enjoyed seeing Margaret's photography exhibit at Continental Airlines - very professional photographs.
It was also nice to be able to have brunch with good friends T&G and have eggs fresh that day. Their landlady has four or five chickens in the backyard. We got to see where T&G are living in the Heights now after the flood a few years ago virtually destroyed their home. They took us on a "Heights tour" and then past where their house had been. It was strange after all of those years to see blank space where their house used to be. Some people like T&G took a buyout and some people rebuilt. A flood like that might not come along again for many years, but it seems to me they made a very wise move in not rebuilding.
