SAN ANTONIO

Day one of three in San Antonio for meetings with Ford reps.
Good friends, good food, great town, ( fiesta starts tomorrow, carnival tonight, ), the river walk is PACKED.
Had a great dinner tonight at Casa Rio Restaurant on the river walk. Could not get a cab in a reasonable amount of time, so we just walked about 9 blocks back to the hotel along the river. My knee can't take a lot of walking anymore, that's why I wanted to take a cab, but we went by the Alamo, first time for 2 guy's from Chicago, and one from Colorado.....they were to say the least intrigued by the history of the place, had a hard time grasping the fact that the city had built permanent structures on the battlefield surrounding the Alamo. Anyway, one of my favorite places, and had a good time showing the guy's around, I'll try to get some photo's posted if I can get my e-mail up to transfer from my phone.
Have a great evening, and thanks for checking in.

    I was raised in San Antonio and eating at Casa Rio was always a special treat.
