Only a few days away - I leave Saturday.

Turns out my dad, who I have had no contact with for 50 years until a month ago, and his 3rd wife will drive 300 miles from Midland to meet me at the Alamo.

My schedule is jammed full and no doubt I will just have to miss some of the fringe ideas...

Wow - 50 yrs! Great that you'll see each other while you're here. Weatherwise, we've had almost no rain for 3 or 4 months, but t-storms are forecast for most of the weekend here in DFW. Sunday looks nice with much cooler temps than we've seen lately. Not sure what's on tap down in San Antone, but will likely be similar, with temps a bit warmer. Have a great trip

I only have Sunday in Dallas - hate to walk around Dealey Plaza and grave-hunting in the rain...and I was planning to not bring a jacket :-)

I hope the weather is nice when you're in San Antonio. The Riverwalk is one of my favorite places to spend an afternoon. Plenty of fine restaurants with outdoor seating next to the river.

The Riverwalk...
I did that - a little. Step-mother in a wheelchair could not make sense of a map, and we encountered an out-of-service elevator while she was looking for a restroom and we had to double back to the Hyatt. After that, we went the other direction a bit, and then we split up and I continued to Houston area and they went to the Alamo :-).

Surprisingly, only heavy overcast and a couple feeble attemps at drizzling in Dallas, and sunny in San Antonio, Houston and Galveston.
