LBJ

Today was a trip to Austin, to visit the LBJ presidential library.  This was well worth the trip.  One look at the building and the word "monolith" comes to mind.  Either that or the Borg.  It is a huge square building.  I have to admit, it was well worth the trip.  But Austin did not sit well with the wife and we immediately took off for the River Walk of San Antonio.



Of course instead of strolling along the riverwalk, we went to a Diner, Drive in and Dive         .  It was a combination of all three.  Basic home style cooking.  A half order of onion rings was a full serving in LA.  She had the talipia special (they just ran out of the 3D feature of chicken fried steak sandwich) I had the pork gravy on toast with mashed potatoes.  I also stole her spinach.  Interesting is the best we can describe.  Of course we closed out the joint, but we got a laugh from the cashier when she called about their hours and asked if they took reservations.



We did take a cruise down the riverwalk, the tourist thing to do in 90 degree heat at 10pm at night.  Tomorrow is the Alamo.
