On the way to Texas we saw a sign for Dalrymple Drive, obviously named for my college friend Kirk Dalrymple! And at the suggestion of Mike's sister and brother in law, stopped at Chicken On The Bayou. Can you say "Cracklin's"? Amazing Louisiana low country cooking at it's best.
Houston on the horizon!

Houston, we have a problem! Traffic, Construction and Toll Roads. Oh my. But it's a great city with lots to offer.
Our dearly departed friend Susan's daughter Jennifer, her husband Art and three boys live in Katy, TX about 20 miles west of downtown. We had a fun visit with a wonderful family and six dogs. Mike and Eric made a great dinner and we celebrated Art's birthday.

And then we got silly with some selfies!
Mike got to reconnect with family of his previous partner Dusty, Kevin Nichols and his Mom Vicki Nichols who just happened to be visiting from Maryland.
And then we got silly again with a few selfies!
We also got to see Dr. Jason Edwards (just began his 3 yr residency in Houston) and his partner Jan, a professional photographer who has had showings all over the country. He's currently working on a book to be published next spring. Jan Rattia.com
For Mike one of the highlights of Houston (besides friends, of course) was going to the famous Kenny and Ziggy's Deli. Ziggy was the star of the documentary "Deli Man" that was one of Susan and Mike's favorite movies! We were here for lunch on Wednesday AND Friday. Thursday AM they were closing for a few hours to film an episode for "FOOD PARADISE" on the Travel Channel!
