Doug, Congrats on your 30 years! That's a milestone. Nope on Star Wars. Dora's was "Oh God" and mine was "Last Picture Show". Course I've got a few more years on both of you - started dating in 1972 and got hitched in 1976.

I think I'm REALLY a cold wimp- would not have gotten out of the car!

"I usually stay at that Microtel on Lake Carlyle but it has gone downhill for some reason, so now I just stay in Vandalia." Hey Patti, check out this link http://www.texasphotoforum.com/forum...ad.php?t=56732
The Vandals are the little league from Vandalia. Just thought it was a little ironic.

Thanks Laurie. I did have a great trip at least while I was shooting. The work part of the trip was interesting but not much fun.
