San Angelo Surprise

My dear husband told me he had a business trip in San Angelo this past Saturday. So, I thought it would be fun to go with him. When we got there - I had the biggest surprise - our dear friends (Cheri and Grady) showed up! Cheri was my college roommate and Bill's best friend in highschool (that's how I met Bill). Bill and Grady have been planning this trip for the past 3 weeks! It was the most wonderful surprise - and for no reason at all - just to meet up with dear friends from El Paso!

This is me being surprised when I saw Grady and Cheri.

This is my dear friend Cheri when she first saw me.

This si the bed and breakfast we stayed at. It was a "blues" place - known as "Blues Inn"
Bill and Grady on the front porch congratulating themselves on surprising the girls.
The next three slides are Bill's and my bedroom.
Across the street was a wall of door murals. Bill found one intriguing.
This is a well known bootfactory. These boots are being made for the woman that owns the land the Astrodome sits on!!

These boots are being resoled for Esther Williams (now 90 yrs old).
(for those of you who are too young - she was an actress that was known for swimming in her movies - the long and short of it)

On the San Angelo Riverwalk.
(I love this picture)

Cheri and Grady infront of a mermaid at the winery.

My other most favorite picture - college roommates umpteen years later and still best friends.
