We got to Coushatta early and we really enjoyed our two nights here.  We did not have any luck but we sure enjoyed ourselves.

We arrived in San Antonio on the 20th.  We sure had an awesome month away from home.  We were 2 days short of a month.  We thank Frank and Adela for a great trip and really thank Compadre Frank for doing all the driving. 

I made a big mistake on this trip.  I did not take my computer to download my pictures daily.  When we got home, I had almost 2000 pictures to download.  I had to weed through them to get only the good ones. This has taken me two weeks to finally post on my blog but at least I have completed this post. 

Lesson learned:  Take computer when on a long trip!!

This is a huge ship.  We drove closer to take more pictures.

Then we were too close to get the whole ship.  Darn!
