A Lone Star Thanksgiving

I will be spending the next few days in Texas, in the city of Saint Anthony. It will be my fifth consecutive Thanksgiving in a foreign land.

    Happy Thanksgiving from a Texan.
    Will you have a chance to go visit the Alamo?

    I lived in San Antonio for several years. You might enjoy a visit to the Missions — especially Mission San Jose, sometimes called the “Queen of the Missions.”

    I hope you will visit Our Lady of the Atonement Roman Catholic Church (Anglican Use). You will do well to bring your camera.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Good grief! What on earth brings you to into the Democratic People’s Republic of Texas? You do realize that you may need your passport to leave that city since the “Border” has moved up a wee-bit, depending of course which side of the Riverwalk you are Lunching.
    Nevertheless, welcome to the City of the Alamo-undone.

    I tried to call you on the big day to reminisce about that most scrumptious of meals we enjoyed together in the cottage of steprock, only one year ago. I can still taste that stuffing!

    Adrain, got your message—a very happy Thanksgiving from todos los Cusacks!

    Xinda, did manage to see the Alamo, which was much enjoyed though I think it ought to be arranged with greater solmenity.

    KD, I did indeed manage to see all but one of the missions, and a post of photos of the Mission San José is forthcoming.

    Mr. Burt, I missed out on Our Lady of the Atonement! Well, at least it (and Our Lady of Walsingham) give me a reason to return to Texas someday.

    Good grief! What on earth brings you to into the Democratic People’s Republic of Texas?

    My sister, brother-in-law, and nephew live in a lovely mediterranean bungalow on Fort Sam Houston. A very jolly Thanksgiving was enjoyed on post!
