Subject: RE: BS: there will always be a Texas
I spent 6 years in the San Antonio area as a contractor and construction manager and I loved the area and lots of the folks I met. I saw a lot of great musicians in Austin and New Braunsfels (Gruene Hall) including Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Fabulous Thunderbirds when Jimmy Vaughan was still with them, Hollywood Fats, Townes Van Zandt, Lyle Lovett, and Peter Rowan with Flaco Jimenez at the Pioneer Grill near Blanco. Did some fishing in the Brazos and at Mustang Island and in the lakes around SA. It was a lovely place but too damn hot and dry for much of the year.
