Got up at 6:30. Went to get Yagi-san coffee from Starbucks… (I think I will be buying a coffee maker soon.)

Went running 3 miles with my next door neighbor at 7 this morning.

Then we ate omleats.

Then we went to my mom’s house. Yagi-san met my mom and gave her a gift:

She is taking her dogs to my dad’s house out in the country.

Then he met my step-mom in the Cold Spring:

We took a tour around the study/office building:

He met my dad:

Then we had to build a pen for the dogs. Yagi-san helped out.

I was feeling quite muscular afterwards (It doesn’t show yet 🙂 )

The dogs tested the pens and found some weak points:

My dad and step-mom gave Yagi-san the “Gone to Texas” book about Texas history:

Then we went to go eat. On the way we saw the Lake Livingston dam spillway

We ate at Bodacious Bar-B-Q

We visited the Cold Spring old county jail museum.. but they had just clsoed:

Then we went shopping:

Then we went back and went on a walk to the spring. Then we picked some vegetables from the garden:

My dad gave yagi-san a $10 confederate note:

Then I demonstrated some techniques I use to lose at shogi.. 🙂

My sister came by and Yagi-san got to meet her

Then we had dinner at The Hop

Then we returned home to sleep and get ready for tomorrow when we go see the Rodeo.
