okay, sorry i know that i have been back since last weekend, and i have delayed on up dating yall, but it has been a busy week for me in san antone, but enough with the excuses, here i go.
cook, brandon and i left austin on sunday, and flew into cincinnati, we first found our gate, and realized that we had and hour before we had to board our plane, so we found a bar right next to the gate, and we stopped in to have a couple of drinks. so we were just sitting there enjoying our drinks, when our waitress asked what time our plane left... check!!! running... saw the plane being taxied out to the runway... oops!! we lucked out though and the airline put us up in a hotel for the night, and gave us a ride back to the airport fir the first flight out in the morning. so the first flight out was at 7:15 the next morning, or so we thought... a dozen and a half delays later, and four beers, we finally headed for hartford at 1 pm. oh yeah, and we had an engine go out on us!!! son of a bitch, that's why i hate flying!!!
so, there is really nothing to tell yall about work other then we did pull more footage in two days then i ever did in a week in san antone! so needless to say i got to get paid by the foot rather then my lousy minimum here in texas. money!!!!
so i did get to tour the yale campus, it was awesome seeing it, and going into buildings that were 300 years old, and to see the names of all the famous people that went there, and man it was just amazing. i also got to walk around downtown new haven and got to see the historical sites, and the new haven green. which if you didn't know that's were the amastad came into port and the slaves were sold in the first slave trades in america.
i also liked the company office (the bar) in new haven. the owner is a huge elvis fan, and if you know me, so am i. love it!! elvis stuff every where! oh yeah and the beer was cold too! and the whole kicker was that it was literally two doors down from our warehouse. if you had a good day the bar was right there so you could celebrate, if you had a bad day, it was right there so you could forget about it.
i also met a girl there, she was one of the bartenders at tcb. her name is jill, and yes, we did go on a date. although i was late picking her up, i got lost driving around west haven. but other then that i showed her why texas boys don't compare to anyone else out there. and she seemed to think so too!
so other then that, it was a good little work trip, we got alot done, and got the second crew going up there, which helps out everyone in the long run, i guess.
but to let you in on some new news, i will be moving out of san antone this weekend and will be moving to corpus christi, and looking to start working my magic there by the middle of september. oh yeah, and bayfest is in corpus the last weekend of the month, three days, music, beach, drinking, if you want to join me, please let me know and i will reserve you a ticket, and an airbed in the apt., or couch, or a corner of the floor, depending on how many people come down.
so i guess i'll be going for now, and i'll be talking to yall soon, have a great one!
