Linda has been my friend for more years than either of us care to
remember! But, with her living in Illinois and me in Texas, there
aren't too many chances for us to celebrate any birthdays together.
This year was different. I'd earned a free airline ticket and I used
it to get her to Austin. I took the time off to 'show her the town' and introduce her to all the
Texas friends I'd been telling her about.
It started Wednesday night when I picked her up at the airport and we
went straight to Hill's Cafe to see Ricky Trevino. Thursday, it was
James Hand at the Saxon Pub and David Ball at Ropers. Friday, a long
drive to West Columbia to see Kevin Fowler. Saturday was Jason Allen.
Sunday was Dale Watson at Chicken Sh!t Sunday, James Hand and then Haybale
at the Continental Club. We ended the party on Monday with Dale again
only at the Continental this time.
We managed 6 days of celebrating before we both collapsed and
she had to go home!
Happy Birthday, 'Sis'!!!
There were too many pictures to fit on one page. Instead, we created
'albums' for you to enjoy by clicking on the images below. Each album
has several pictures, so relax and enjoy!
