Oh my...

The price to print on a pocket T is ... prohibitive!!!  

So, it will be no pocket, until I look into having the pockets printed separately and sewn on.. ummm professionally.

Mighty nice of ya , Id say !

I understand that you might not make the trip this year.  Things going on that must be taken care of.   Still hoping you can go if the leg is OK and your wife can do without you (or wants to get rid of you) for a while.

But if you don't make it, then, yeah, you can still get a shirt and pretend.

I'm planning on going !  

Wife's operation is this Wednesday , my leg don't get walked on a lot and I like it like that !  

................................................

I'm planning on ridding down the Natchez Trace to the Southern campground the first day and going on the Kerrville the second .  If Steve wants to meat at the Campground or somewhere along the way then that's great !
Especially if he already has camp set up when I get there !  

Honestly, I am not going to come.

I have several reasons, first being I have no fond childhood memories of Texas to come back to.   Texas was an enforced every other year trip so my Mother could go back home to see her relatives, all of whom were stuffy angry old Texan alcoholic women to me.    The trip was a ball buster, as my father didn't stop except for gas.   The trip was a hated every other year affair to all of us kids.  

So, I have a long standing lingering mental "Texas block" from those childhood experiences.

Next, lingering health issues.   I am really just recovering from prostrate surgery and I have a lot of raw places and several partially destroyed male plumbing type items left over from all the somewhat drastic attempts to get my bleeding to stop.   They finally stopped the bleeding by totally cutting off the blood supply to my prostate which then died in place.   Issue to me is that cutting off the blood supply to an area isn't all that laser precise, and several other areas got reduced blood supply due to the "fixes" applied and I became limping wounded accordingly and have yet to recover completely.

Lastly,  Staph and Strep infections.   THE CLEAR #1 injunction I have right now is to STAY AWAY from hospitals, clinics and dentists offices as if I get the terrible S's it can kill me.   My heart valve site is the primary death concern, but with all the raw meat inside me there are lots of other places for staph and strep to take up root as well.  

Lastly, since I began stirring around working on my house some I realize just how much weaker I have become in general.   Since any of you last saw me, my hair has gone totally white and I look very much like an sick old man.   Legs, back, general mobility has declined a good bit.    I am hoping that I can recover this lost mobility this summer.

Oldfeller, I sure hope you recover and get your strength back.
When you do, I would like to show you a better side of Texas than "angry old Texas alcoholic women".  I promise to not take you to any honky-tonk bars... even though the big thing these days are wineries up on highway 290.
