Greetings! Not alot to report. The Labor Day was pretty uneventful. We are finally getting a little rain. Light, but better than none. I'm ready for some cooler weather. We had a murder here, a week ago this past Friday. Guess who was on call. That was one long weekend, but the guy is captured now. We made national news. Deb and I knew the victim and his family. His mom used to work for Deb at KP Liquors, in the late 80's. His sister is a cop in Lockhart. The dove hunt is this coming weekend. We'll go on Sat afternoon and come back on Monday. Brent's dad says there is dove everywhere. Looks like I'll be riding with Jim Younger, this year. His little truck gets a lot better mileage than mine. I sure hope the rain has stopped before then. Everyone is doing OK. I went to the skin Dr last Tuesday. Deb said I had a suspicious place on my back. The Dr said it was just old age spots, but she froze a place on my right temple. OUCH. Oh well. Vanessa is getting over the morning sickness. Now, she says she's hungry all the time. Guess that's a good sign. I sure wish I could talk her into going to Vegas with us next month. Will probably be the last time they can afford to go anywhere for a looong time. God, I remember those times. I also hope it cools off out there before we go. It was 106 there yesterday. Last October it was 77-78 in the afternoons and around 60 in the mornings. Just right. But, it's always cozy and comfy in the casinos. I'm already getting psyched. Oh, we grilled some of the shrimp we brought back from Corpus Christi. YUMMY! Guess I had better get busy. I'll update again after the dove hunt. Rick.
