Alright then- every Cajun coming to Austin grab a bucket of water and stop by my garden on your way into town!

I'm sure there's plenty of folks who are dealing with the redirected Mississippi River though the Morganza Spillway and Atchafalaya Basin that would gladly pass on some of the floodwaters your way. Think of the Memphis photos you've seen on TV and add another 10' of water.

Ironically we are in a severe drought here in Lafayette and 10 miles East the cows are swimming.

We took some back with us when we visited Lafayette this past weekend. Lake Travis is beginning the summer lower than usual and the creeks on my property are dry.

Y'all will just have to suffer with us this weekend...LOL. But don't take any of this rain home with you...we need all we can get!

Yeah to bad we couldn't re-direct the Mississippi down through Lake Travis. Then again it would have just turned into a superfund site based on some of the water samples seen so far.

The NCAA did not do Texas any favors with this field. A very strong two and three seed. And the four seed isn't a cakewalk but shouldn't present a problem for the other three. However would love to see them force you guys into about twelve innings on day one.

We've had a few hard knocks with injuries this year but this is a special group of students that we are very proud of. I know we'll leave it all on the field and we certainly see teams rising to the top of their game when they play us. It's gonna be a great weekend!

_ I'm set to go. Just bought two reserved sesat ticket packages...have a spot reserved at LoneStar RV Campground along I-35...with a rent car reserved to get back and forth to the games. And it's our 35th wedding anniversary!

Look forward to the weekend.

Red, I'm not sure which route you are taking to Austin but if you go through Columbus and need good Mex food I have a lead for you. Los Cabos is south of the interstate on the left. Their Fajitas Mexicanos is killer. I am one of two Cajun alumni living here. BTW, there is a campground across the street. The restaurant is on hwy 71 just after you cross the Colorado River. Just past this exit is the main bypass to Austin. Also in the little town of Ellinger north of Columbus there is good BBQ at Peters and Kolaches at Hruskas.

Went to the baseball regional last year, and made real good time taking I-10 west to just past Columbus, TX, and then Hwy 71 straight into Austin. I think we made it in about 6 hours.
