Bicycle Adventure

We left early this morning for breakfast and a bike tour of the King William area in downtown San Antonio. About 4 blocks from the restaurant (advertising the best omelettes in SA - which they were!!) I had a flat tire. Luckily we were close to a gas station and air hose so we made it to El Mirador for breakfast. Met Mayor Harberger as he was leaving. When we came out, Roger's tire was flat too! Guess the "bike gods" were with us because there is a bus stop across the street from the restaurant and #42 comes to the park. So we loaded the bikes on the front of the bus and thanks to a kind bus driver, who let us both ride for $1 (he couldn't take any larger bills and we only had 1 dollar bill!) we made it "home." Not exactly the adventure we planned but a new experience. Needless to say, Roger is shopping at the bike store for new tubes, patch kits and a hand pump!
Roger & Gary LaPoint played golf yesterday. Ann & I shopped and then we all met for lunch at LaHacienda. Sat out on the patio and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon. Felt like we were playing "hookie" - having a fun day during the week!
Leaving tomorrow for Sugarland and Samantha's birthday party on Saturday.
A few inquiries but no confirmations for the townhouse.
