The best part of my trip to Austin was that it set me up for a visit to my brother Matt and his smart, pretty daughters Michelle and Megan. Matt has lived in Arizona for almost two decades, but I have never
visited him. I had a great time catching up with him and his girls. I also got to meet Elska, whom he has been seeing for several months. A lovely woman. I’m very glad I got a chance to visit.
