Texas Family Vacation

The river is running and Earl said he has a couple of tractor tires available for Big Mike. Big E talked eloquently of his right to be at the Frio, I agree, but he can not take the interloper title from me. I earned it. Well, I am older for one thing and always felt at home in the hill country of outlaws and rebels. Even the Texas Rangers thought twice of walking up to a cabin in the Camp Wood and Leakey escarpment, and at night. Definitely armed with double barrel shotguns. I hope that Kristi does not have to use the restroom on the float trip. She is a veteran.... also from another part of the country, and has the bug for bluebonnets and three national grand champion trees of Baer County. To think I get to see the passing of the torch to the next generation of University of Texas graduate tykes. I am all choked up, I can hardly contain myself. I can not wait to see the young men that have blessed me with the playful exuberance of youth and curiosity. And what can you say about Kevin. I can remember when Carey and Karl were doing backward high dives from eighty foot trees at the Frio. Playing miniature golf, climbing old baldy, paddle wheeling, horse shoes, washers etc. And the only ones to beat me were Earl the Pearl. Why ......because Earl is from Arkansas...but I digress. Thank you Mom and Earl for the invite to your paradise location...and thank you for your friendship and leadership. Now I hear, grumbling from the orange and white crowd, that they want to have another battle with me in golf. Still upset about the game of allll time and how the gringe stole Xmas. A game of chance for Kevin, Carey, Big E, Robbie, Scotty and other tea sippers from the upper crust. But an easy game "The best Game Every Played" on the Frio for the old 60 year old man. I pray that you will take it easy on the old guy the old rebel that went to Arkansas to get a college education and did the best he could. Wellllllllllll...................the game is a foot............the gauntlet has been laid down shall we call it "Revenge at the Rock" Flat Rock that is. In all seriousness what a delight this trip will be and I will cherish the memories forever and be very careful driving down to the river. Big E I want you on my team......one interloper to another..unless you got your little pinkie up in the air. And what can you say about Kevin? Rah, Rah and go wolfs? I give you the President Bush laugh heh, heeeh, heeh. This should be fun.
