I guess anyone would wonder if the connection is still there. I mean, we hadn’t seen Walter and Robin in nearly 30 years. And, although Walt and I were best friends in high school, and stayed in touch for years after that, once we did drift apart…well, I wondered if the vibe was still there. I’m glad we saw them, ‘cuz it was….and we got to meet their charming college-sophomore son Nate, and we had the bbq treat of the trip, getting to share a meal with them at Rudy’s,  close to their beautiful home and purveyor of the self-proclaimed “worst bbq in Texas”.

Beans, sausage, slaw and the best creamed corn I ever ate...all from Rudy's, San Antonio

I didn’t take any pictures of Walt or Robin but I did find some photos, taken by “Gretchen”, of a meal really similar to ours.

Fatty? Hell no...PERFECT Brisket from Rudy's, San Antonio, Tx.

As Arnold used to say before he got overly busy in California, “We’ll be Back!”
