The Real Reason For Texas
I couldn’t really mention this previously, because my brother is a regular reader of the blog. But the point of the Texas trip was for his 40th birthday party, which his wife organized as a surprise party. Thankfully, though, his wife is his social coordinator, and my wife is mine, so he just sort of accepted the fact that we had decided to fly out for a weekend without any real suspicion*.
So my brother, his buddy, and I went out sailing on Saturday to get him out of the house, with a case and a half of beer and instructions not to get back before 6:30 PM. A case and a half of beer, a broken rudder, and a stop at the bar on the way home, and he got a big surprise as 40 of his closest friends were waiting in his backyard. Some pictures below the fold, of Jeff & his 10-month old son Jack, of his wife Jacki and my wife, and then some pictures of the wife and I from the weekend…

Brad, where in Texas were you? You must have been on the coast somewhere…..As for the looks and brains in the family, I think we might have a debate there……
Down in Corpus Christi…
Corpus is a nice area….I’ve been there a couple of times.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your lovely wife……
