All in the Family

My brother and his wife were here for a couple of days last week and we did what we always do when people come to town. Eat on South Congress, drink at Hula Hut, check out some art, and shoot some guns. Hey come on, it's Texas! Colby and I got up early Sunday morning and drove out to the gun club. It was perfect weather and not another person there, we had the whole place to ourselves. The above picture is of Colby shooting my grandfather's shotgun as we did some skeet shooting. Thanks again Uncle Bubba!



We also went to the pistol range, and "blasted some caps" as the kids say. We high tailed it home and met the ladies for some breakfast. All said and done before 11am. It was great having them here and as we dropped then off in San Antonio for their plane it was 78F and sunny. I wonder what it was in Seattle when they got up the next morning?

Oh, calm down!

so today was "record store day" where there were exclusive releases from bands in various formats. I've had it on my schedule for months and after some tacos from torchy's we hit waterloo records on 6th street. after a brief moment of panic "they were right here..." i found what i was looking for. 9, yes count'em 9, 7" singles from the jesus lizard packaged just for this release. I got #557 of 2000 and couldn't be happier. now if i just had something to play them on. guess i'll start looking for a juke box that takes 45's for my ever growing collection that i've had since high school.

Rockin'
