When I travel, I have a hard and fast rule about making sure that I’ve got a digital device to work on, [i]i.e.[/i], computer, PDA, phone, &c. and that I’ve got some good reading material. Books, magazines, something. I was dropped off at the San Antonio’s [go spurs!] Sunset station. There was … Riding the rails
Haunted Rail Road crossing Right up there with the Marfa Mystery Lights, there are ghosts throughout Texas. My kind hosts in San Antonio were piqued by the thought of the “haunted railroad crossing,” we set out, late Sunday afternoon, to find the crossing. It’s on Shane – which [url=http://photos2.ghostweb.com/txrr1.html]dead ends into Villamain – down behind … Haunted Rail Road crossing
Bright lights, Alamo City As a tourist – or guest of honor in the Alamo City, no trip would be complete without a quick tour of the Riverwalk.

I snuck into an apartment pool for a dip, then I detoured around the creek and joined a couple of guys swimming, one who was swimming with his dogs. One of the dogs rushed at … Realizing dreams
The Sirens’ call I set out to go one way, and is usual, at least in my case, the best laid schemes rarely come through. I’ll swear after Monday’s East Loop hike, I was going to retrace my steps. But I didn’t. I had a little BBQ, then as I was heading towards the downtown … The Sirens’ call
I was sorting through the e-mail program this last weekend, and I opened up my “sent mail folder.” A little over 9,000 messages sent. That works out to about 25 replies in a single day. Considering that I wasn’t available some weekends, that number suggests the average is off. Lots of work there. Then I … Cleaning out boxes
Bloody hell, why am I going on about some Brit holiday? I don’t rightly know about St. John’s Eve, nor, am I going to [url=http://dreamquests.net/ShamrockPatch/StJohnEve.html]follow up on it.
