For my first Austin breakfast I picked up McDonald’s for the first time in I don’t know how long. Wasn’t great but wasn’t bad either. Definitely won’t be doing that every day, though.

After finally arriving at Brenda’s house, we went to run some errands and then ended the night with a delicious steak dinner at Logan’s Roadhouse. It’s good to be visiting my friend in Austin again.

Today In Los Alamos History
Today I visited Tommy’s office, went shopping for groceries with my mom, picked up Tommy’s dogs from Marvel’s house, took pictures of trees in the wind and had an early birthday dinner for my mom at Marvel’s house. Full day of not much until dinner.
