Howdy folks ... we're back home. We had a great trip, and turned out the Alamo Park Rangers absolutely LOVED my Bowie knives ! (I took two) The sergeant in charge even asked me if he could have a fellow Ranger take a picture of him holding one of my Bowies. and of course I said yes. They were great!
To avoid the insane drivers around Austin and Dallas we returned via a different route through west Texas and Oklahoma, then through Kansas visiting various museums along the way. A very interesting trip, but of course it's good to be back home. Tomorrow we go pick up the dogs at the kennel and things will be back to "normal".
