Off to Austin...

We're headed to Austin, Texas, today for the wedding of my youngest brother Dan and his lovely bride Jenn. I fly to Maryland on Sunday with Joey to take the dreaded bar exam on Tuesday and Wednesday, then drive back here with Joey, hopefully in time for Ellie's 4th birthday on Sunday the 30th. No posts for while, but before I go:

The local supermarkets stock an amazing variety of locally made chip sauces. In this shot, from the local Hornbacher's grocery store, the famous "Red Pepper Chip Sauce" is just a small section off to the left:

And when the kids and I walked over to the playground at the school the other day, it turns out the light brown cloud that looked like it could be smoke seeping out of a main door turned out to be a cloud of incredibly fine pieces of a plant, source unknown (click to enlarge):

Also! We're so far south along I-29 in Fargo that not only do we have such things as a giant fireworks store at our exit, the speed limit has gone from the in-town 55 mph to a zippy 75! When we drive into town, we build up a great head of speed!
