Todays Texas Eagle #22/#422 rolled into Austin 20 minutes early! While at the Station picking up my tickets for the trip North on Thursday for The Gathering! I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Alice, :wub:

one of our fantastic trip report writers and a Sweetheart! Also traveling with her was this strange dude wearing some kind of foriegn looking hat!

Said his name was Patrick but I bet thats just his undercover name! All the proper authorities have been alerted up the Line to St. Louis, an APB is probaly being issued as this is written!
That is all! Damn Army! :lol:

Hope to See See ya' in the Windy City for the Gathering in Oct!!!

Yeah, but Jim, who otherwise seems like a nice guy, was wearing a t-shirt celebrating some has-been folkie hack named Bob Dylan. YUCK!!
