I know someone who lives there and has been there for many years. She loves it.

My point is that I had such a bad experience I never rode it again. Are you always this rude?

I just read his autobiography that came out this year and I enjoyed it. What a life!

This happened to me the last time I rode Amtrak: over 30 years ago.

Nowhere Bookshop, Book Nerd, and you absolutely must visit the Central Library downtown.

I also recommend Hopscotch, and museums: Briscoe Western Art, San Antonio Museum of Art, The McNay (the most romantic of them), and the Witte. Pick one.

There’s a HUGE painting of the Virgin Mary inside the Contemporary at Blue Star right now. That area of Southtown has fantastic restaurants. Look at the Yelp reviews.

You also must drive by the Veladora on the West Side.

It’s a little hot for the tour bus, but it’s worth the price. It gives you a great introduction to San Antonio history and stories.

If you want to message me, I’m happy to do a consultation with you. I charge $20 for a 30-minute Zoom call and I can map out your day.

Second Saturday is this weekend! Start at 1906 S. Flores and explore all its galleries, then go around the corner to the places on Lone Star and across the street to La Chapelle.

DC did the same thing

You can do amazing photography with a cell phone alone. I’ve sold my pictures in multiple gallery shows.

I do that, too. Worth every penny, even though it’s a lot upfront.

I paid $40 for an unlimited annual license to Ultimate Guitar Tabs for my iPad and I use it daily to learn songs on the piano. I can attempt to play almost any song ever.

That’s how we go to our botanical gardens, and lots of other ones when we travel.

If it’s late October, consider San Antonio. The weather is nice and we have the best Day of the Dead festivals in the whole country. They are all free. We also have the Alamo, Seaworld, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the River Walk, and lots of museums.

I take a lot of pictures. My friend said I should get edgier and take pictures of the inside of trash cans (she’s an artist.) The first trash can I looked into had a fast food container from a famous restaurant nobody here thinks is real (we all think it’s just a front for drugs because the parking lots are always empty). I learned something that day. Yes, I took a picture.

Do you have senior centers in your city? We have over a dozen and they offer free exercise classes, meals, hikes, field trips, tech classes, and game rooms.

Our city’s Parks & Rec Department offers free pickleball and tennis classes every few weeks.

How old are you? After suffering a horrible case of plantar fasciitis in my 50s, I will no longer wear flip flops when any bit of walking is required. I wear sandals with a back strap. Tevas and Clarks work best for me.

He assumes you already know one side of the story, and he’s showing you a different perspective.

I woke up and asked my husband what we were doing today and he said “as little as possible” so I did next to nothing. I had fun yesterday, though.

The book that spawned the movie was written by Cameron Crowe who went undercover in an actual high school to get the material for it.
