SanAngelo Christmas-Day 1

My older sister and her family came in from California for Christmas. My younger sister couldn't travel (she was pregnant) so we all loaded up the trucks and headed for SanAngelo!


The California crew had stopped at the DrPepper museum in Waco on the way to GranMa and GranPa's house, so we stopped in Dublin at the bottling plant to finish their beverage tour. (And to get a REAL DrPepper).








Here we all are headed back to the truck for the rest of the journey.
After we got to SanAngelo we stopped at Swellen and Alan's house first. Alan was working so we headed downtown to visit him at the station.
Alan gave us the tour of the fire station. The boys wished our garage was that big. Andy was impressed by the 3 X-boxes the crew had networked together so they could play Halo.
This is one of 3 ambulances that were in the bay that day.


Always a good warning to pay attention to.













If you take a firemans picture, with a flash, while he's wearing all his gear; all you get is the reflective tape. That is Alan, even though you can't see him.








The boys got to get on the trucks. The big truck was in the shop, this is a backup.
It was getting late and I had 3 boys yelling "I'm hungry Dad!". I asked if I could be Yugoslavia, but they didn't think that was funny. So we took everyone to Cici's for all you can eat pizza.

I had to read the "Yugoslavia" comment 3 times before getting it!!

I remember when there was a Yugoslavia. Come to think of it - that's when you started using that line - over 20 years ago. Still funny though.

Can I be the Czech Republic?
