Ice cold Corona in one hand and a good book in the other hand while soaking up the Mexican sun. Life just cannot possibly get any better than this. I've been through six cans of sunscreen and can't wait to show off my tan. And yes, I do have tan lines. My new European friends ---- not so much on the tan lines.

Kris and I made it to the Little Big Town and I was able to dodge lines and get my business taken care of at each stop we made in record time. We met the nicest father and daughter at the Social Security Administration office. Both are legally blind but yet the daughter insisted on leading the father. We talked about the weather and gardens and making jelly. Kris visited with a woman at the DPS license office. The woman was thumbing through a magazine that was geared to "the larger women" in our society. Large Woman pointed out a dress that a slim model was wearing to Kris and said, "This dress would look so cute on you. For me, it would have to have a lot more material to cover my arms and legs." Large Woman made the comment that it didn't make much sense to have slim models advertising clothes that large people would never wear in public. I won't get on that soap box today.

Grabbed a bite to eat at Chili's and made it with time to spare to watch "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". You have to be a true-blue Harry Potter fan to sit through a two and a half hour movie with no bathroom breaks. I have read all of the Harry Potter books and the books are always better than the movies.

I might try my hand at snorkling tomorrow. Our honeymoon trip is coming to a close and I need to get out there and be a little more adventurous. Bubba and Sam are still hanging out in the lobby.....and still watching ESPN. Waiter, una mas cerveza, por favor!
