Algodones, Mexico is
always our choice to spend an afternoon or two. We have
Friends and Margaritas, the world is back in tune!
A good Cuban and a few Margaritas go a long ways to put you in the right mind.................
I think that's Mom styling in my sunglasses, have you noticed any
ants???????????
I'm not sure why, but all the Mexicans thought Minnie &
Vinnie's names were both, "Tacos!"
Dad looks on in amazement that even Mom has Friends down in Mexico. Much Friendlier than Phoenix!
Although, seeing your woman with another man can cause drinking, don't tell Dad it's non-alcoholic beer........................
Surprise...... Guess who's coming to dinner; It's Buddy, my
brother. Buddy lives down in Mexico and usually only makes the
states for Christmas. He played one on us and showed up
unexpectedly. What a nice surprise! Very Friendly place!
Is that a huge mouse drinking beer
with Buddy? Margaritas do funny things to your mind and instead
of bringing cheap tequila back to the states, I brought a bunch of
rocks back. What was I thinking? Another Margarita Por
Favor............
And
Another SURPRISE! I was expecting to have dinner with Nick and
Sherry Fresques, but was surprised to find 5 Combat Controllers were
also dinning with us. Some of the troops were learning how to
fall out of the sky and stopped by for a visit. Buddy came along
too and we managed to eat and drink everything in the house. I
was as full as the stories I was exaggerating about to our new
warriors, who managed not to fall asleep during all my babbling.
Then Nick mentioned something about X-Box and all of a sudden there was
life, I think. Well, there was action all over as these guys shot
up the terrorist. It was all happening so fast and way over my
head, I knew my skills were long past.
Combat Control is in the hands of these guys (Steve, Mason, Eddie, Chad, and Derek) and we expect a lot out of
them; They Deliver! It was my pleasure to spend some time with
Nick and Sherry, and an honor to meet the guys! Thank You for
such a nice surprise.
I was
supposed to see a few other guys while in Yuma, but plans all fell
through. I missed some guys on the way, but the surprises
overcame the let downs and I had a good week. It took me 4 days
to drive out and one to drive back. I had a lot of time to think,
while driving back and you know what............ I'm a lucky guy!
I hope to see you in Nashville and the follow-on @ Razcals with Dave
Pearson in Asheville. It's all about you guys and I thank you for
being part of my vacation. I love you, Mac
