Dallas by morning, Austin at night

When I booked a super cheap [url=www.Amtrak.com]train ticket I was aware that it might be a little late. See: it’s summer thing. Train tracks get hot.

Just the way it goes, life on the road. The good news is that I had a chance to catch up on backlog of work I wanted to get straightened out.

Funny dynamic to my family, too, Wednesday morning, I was busy trying to sort out router problems in the home network.

To her credit, Sister had successfully completed an upgrade, and she did, in fact, upgrade firmware and software on Ma Wetzel’s machine.

When I left, all was well with the network.

From Pa Wetzel’s office: “Always trust what the engineer says. Always.”

But I’m not sure I would.

“If you have an Amtrak issued ticket, please sign in the upper left hand corner.”

I put down the symbol for Sagittarius

Boarded at 1534 Hours. Arrived at Ft. Worth a little before 1700. Arrived Austin at 2200.
