Available Seating

In the summer, these seats are full of people who’ve come here to see the musical “Texas”, a musical that’s (sort of) based on the history of this part of Texas. (Apparently ALL the early settlers could sing and dance! Amazing!)

Anyway, at the end of December, the place is empty.

Guess which way I like it?

Maybe I just imagined that I caught them exchanging worried glances at each other.

At any rate, I didn’t stop.  But I did come back later….
