Just got back from the spicy foods cruise from Galveston TX to Cozumel MX and back. Met some old friends and made some new ones. We drove from Las Cruces to Galveston and ran into a "Blue Norther" on the way. On the return trip we drove on US 90 from San Antonio to Van Horn and learned that the only two area industries are patrolling the border and killing deer. When you feed them corn from an automated feeder, then shoot them from an elevated blind, I have a hard time calling it "sporting". We're going to attend the Fiery Foods show in Albuquerque at the end of this month and plan to get together for dinner on Thursday 26 February at 7:00pm at Monte Carlo Liquors and Steak House. It's at 3916 Central Avenue SW just across the Rio Grande river from Old Town. I haven't made a reservation because right now it's just Celeste and me and Abby and Jim Campbell. If anyone else is going to be in the area and wants to come, let me know. Dave Anderson TLCC
