GAF Muster 2009 Report

This Native Texican LOVES the snow since we do not get it very often.  I was ecstatic that we got to shoot the Grand Muster in the snow!

Christmas 2004 in Cotulla, TX which is about an hour north of Laredo.  My Mom-in-law said it was the first time it snowed at the ranch in 40 years.  The deer, Axis, turkeys, javelina & hogs didn't know what to think with all that cold, wet white stuff everywhere!

Over 2 weeks later, and the Texicans are still talking about snow!  I wants pictures!  An more video!  Then we can come down and talk about the heat!

Drydock, I grew in the Texas Panhandle and I lived there and the Oklahoma Panhandle. It can snow up there anytime after Labor Day. We hardly ever get snow in the MetroPlex, we only get Ice. No one can drive on Ice. Usually, by the end of October, the temp. has cooled down. I know that there is a Best Western there in Lockhart and a couple of good places to eat BBQ.

Don't forget the jail!

Don't forget the privately run State Prison.  I could give you a guided tour of the jails and prisons all over the State of Texas.

The Best Western is where I stayed when we shot the TSRA match there.  BW is my preferred place to stay when I travel.

Scout, I guess that's where I'll plan on staying then. I've seen the signs for the BW there in Lockhart, but we never spent the night doen there. I've been to Lockhart many times to pickup prisoners at the county jail and the prison unit.

I've stayed at the Best Western and it is a good place.

For those who were at the muster when I had to leave early, heres the update on my parents. 

They are doing much better.  Both home now.  Both still have to use walkers to get around though. 
Dad is recovering really well and getting around great, but still has to were a neck brace for awhile yet.  He gets dizzy spells but one of the Docs says that could be from all the different meds he is on.  He probably won't be driving anymore and that will be an adgustment. 
Mom is doing well also but it's slower going.  the has a broken ankle and wrist as well.  This makes geting around and doing things harder.  She is also going through alot emotionaly and that will take longer to heal.

thanks for the good wishes.
