"Sir, you forgot your Whataburger!"

WHERE: Corpus Christi, San Antonio, and Galveston, Texas & Montomorosa, Mexico
WHEN: March 1996
WITH: Family
WHY: Spring Break, also to visit my parents' friends Lou and Larry (and their kids).  

MEMORIES:
-Not a lot, to be honest.  Lots of pictures, though; memories beneath.

Feeding seagulls from our balcony - they would catch the bread in mid-air.  What nimble birds!

Mexico



I thought is was so funny that there was a fast-food place called "Whataburger."  While we were at one once, some man asked us for money.  Mom declined, but said she'd buy him a burger.  He agreed.  I guess it took too long because he was walking away when they came out with the burger and Lou, in her heavy Texan accent yelled, "Sir, you forgot your Whataburger!" Mom and I found that amusing.

Lou and Larry Radney.  They lived in Japan the same time my parents did.

Please note: Mickey Mouse "shorteralls."

Fishing at the Radney's beach house in Galveston.  I didn't actually catch anything, but I do remember some fish biting.

Sibling love.

More sibling love.
