Down South(west)...

I'm blogging tonight from Springfield, MO. My cousin S. got married here a few hours ago. All but one of the Matlock brothers and sisters came for the occasion. (Well, the sister had to be here since it was her son getting hitched!) It was a nice wedding and reception. We are getting together tonight for a dinner and "catch-up" session at local eatery somewhere close by.

It's been 13 years since I've been in Springfield. The last time was during a tour stop with the NEMO Singers of what was then Northeast Missouri State University. One thing I will take away from this trip: if you want to get anywhere in this town, you have to take Glenstone Ave. to get there, at some point.

Chili is once again being served by St. Louis Pet Sitters. Their last visits with her were, in their words, g-r-r-r-eat.

The real question is did you eat at Mexican Villa?

the real answer is, I don't even remember seeing a sign for it. : )

They have mexican villas all over town. Probably five, all of them fabulous.
