a gorgeous daytrip to San Antonio

[Michael Eisenstadt]

it is a hole week now since i daytripped to SA
by Greyhound.

i was met at the SA bus station by Joe and Ceci
Martinez before noon and whisked away to La
Fonda restaurant. Joe who is 75 and recovering
from multiple heart operations said - I think
I see a woman I know, i dint turn around as 
that would be rude, and Terrelita sat down 
next to me. we 4 lunched long into the afternoon
so i face to faced with Terrelita for many hours.

Joe knew I planned to phone Terrelita so the
cool dude invited her to join us at the restaurant.
what a guy! 

the 6:20 bus back to Austin got in early, again 
non-stop around 1 h 30 minutes, bus half full and 
very loud as bored travelers noodled on their cell 
phones. and the Red River #15 bus was a block away 
its bus stop across the street from the Austin bus 
station right when got to the bus stop after
exiting the Greyhound bus. this is behind Highland 
Mall if you've never been there. spoiled as i was 
by the easy leg from San Antonio to Austin, it 
seemed like the Red River bus took ever so long to 
get from Highland Mall, into and out of the HEB on 
41st street & Red River, downtown on San Jacinto, 
pull a right at 11th, pull a left at Congress, and 
down Congress to 7th where i get off.

trotted home with still some light in sky

now that's day tripping! my roommate has our car
on Wednesdays
