A quick update.  My father has apparenently developed a bleeding ulcer and I have been staying nights.  We hoped we would have some answers today, but as of yet we do not.

From Janie Bauers:
Do you have a passport? Do you like traveling with interesting people? There is still time to book a trip on the 25th Annual Mexico International Chili Cook Off Party Bus. There is always an abundance of food, fun, adult beverages and story telling.

The trip originates from San Marcos, at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, February 5, 2010 and returns on Sunday afternoon, February 7, 2010, which should allow enough time for you to be home in front of the TV in time for the "Super Bowl".

The cost of the total trip is $ 195.50/per person based on double occupancy. This includes the bus trip, with eats, drinks and entertainment down and back, Friday night buffet, Casino trip, table and chairs, meat (90/10 ground beef - 2 lbs), propane, breakfast buffet both mornings, trip back to the casino or to the market downtown or just hang-out in the hotel bar. Special
(collector's item) cooks gift.

If you are interested we need to hear from you by February 1, 2010. Contact Larry or Janie at (512) 353-8895.

A quick note from Vickie Childress:
Just a note to let everyone that won a jacket in Terlingua they were put in the mail yesterday. So bee looking for them.

From Dana Plocheck:
The February Trails is available for viewing on the CASI Web Site.

I hope I have not missed any other important item.  Thanks for the prayers.  Janice, Cliff and family.
