Best wishes and ba-bye!!

Living in a college town is great, except two weekends per year: Residence hall move-in and graduation, this being the latter. The problem isn't the students wildly partying; we're used to that. The problem is the parents who appear to be so lost driving around town, you wonder if they visited their now-educated progeny even once during the last four years!! Congrats to all the grads and, please, don't let Mom or Dad be the designated driver.

I thought you were in Houston and moving to Austin?!

We had the Austin house for two years before starting the reno. We would go back and forth between. Will be spending more time in Austin once it's done. Austin is all about UT, music and state government.
