[Texascavers] New Foundation in memory of slain San Antonio Woman to benefit Bustamante
Viola Barrios was killed last week in San Antonio, she was from Bustamante and opened a great restaurant here in San Antonio decades ago. Her family has created a non profit foundation and it will benefit her home town. http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/metro/stories/MYSA050108.barrios.foundation.bc88a9ff.html I had met her several times and once asked her to bring me a poster from Bustamante on her next trip, she did. Despite being on food network and being very successful she stayed grounded.

I will see what I can do about getting all nonpaying mosquitoes evicted from the site. Feel free to kill all mosquitoes without wristbands. ;-) In all seriousness, I have not been out at the site in the evening so I cannot give you a good answer. It has been so wet that it is likely safe to say that there are more than in a dry year. Bring some insect repellant in case you need it.

RE: [Texascavers] Fox sightings
This past week Sara and I saw a fox in Placencia on the beach... For some reason I was suprised to find a beach bum fox. Didn't expect foxes to like the beach but what do I know. Now the Jaguar eating all the dogs in the area was also kinda cool... Big prints outside my cabin in the sand one morning but thats a different story. Joe David Locklear said: I saw a fox along the road. Yvonne Droms and I also saw a fox ona backroad as we were driving back to the Convention campground at dusk after a cave trip near Wyandotte. Apparently there are a lot of foxes in southern Indiana. Cool!

I came real close to buying a commuter car but then I remembered all the rednecks that drive giant trucks with massive pieces of bone crushing steel right about my head level strapped to the front of there trucks. So now I car pool instead. Ranzau _ From: bob cowell [mailto:bcow...@satx.rr.com] Sent: Monday, May 21, 2007 5:02 PM To: TEXAS CAVERS Subject: [Texascavers] Gas Prices( my part) I've often said when gas goes above 2.80 I'm getting a motor scooter. Guess what I bought a kymco 49.5cc Had it unrestricted and I get 85 miles to the gallon. It uses high test, but I'd rather pay 3.09 a week than pay 76.00 for my suburban. Top speed unrestricted is around 50-55. I use it to go back and forth to work. It was a little scary at first but I feel better now.
