I went to Texas for work. It was trip #2 of this young year.

 

This was my chariot (aka rental car). Yep, a black Crown Vic.

 

I enjoyed another [awesome] michelada in the [lovely] courtyard at the [super cool] Hotel San Jose. I revisited my cowboy boot lust.

 

I dined with a colleague at Bess Bistro. Yep, Sandra Bullock’s Austin restaurant.

I saw the Grillists near Fort Hood. Somehow I resisted.

BTW, if you ever want to pawn something, Killeen is the spot for you.

At Fort Hood, I learned about Fisher House Foundation (which does amazing, much-needed work for military families).

And then I flew home (for two days, but still) before I went to South Beach.
