My wife got to spend some quality time w/ her mom. Got to see my 12 year old niece and 5 year old nephew. They are good kids - smart and creative - too bad their parents will beat it out of them in the years to come. And we saw my fil and it wasn't totally disgusting ... that is to say, I didn't feel like personally apologizing to every black person I saw all the way home.

We'll probably be back before long. My wife always gets together w/ her mom on Memorial Day weekend and they have a good time. I may even come back for the founders day of the fraternity I was in at Millsaps
