Hey Carrie-
You have been to the Alamo.
We went there when we went to Texas on a family vacation.
You might not remember because we went there a few days before we went to the beach and you got the worst sunburn of your life.
So the sunburn is probably all you remember of that trip. But you have been there.
And when you were on a speeding motorcycle, did it happen to be with your totally awesome sister?

I'm pretty sure we both had chicken pox as kids too.
In fact, every kid in the neighborhood got exposed to them the day we had a neighborhood pet show in our back yard.

That is quite a list. I was going to tell you that you had been to the Alamo, but Della beat me to it, We also went on a river boat ride on the river that goes through SanAntonio? It was a cool change from the heat of the day.

Hey ya,
We saw a lot of things on our trip to Paris, Mona Lisa and Winged victory being some of the most famous but we did not see David he is in Florence. Unless you went to Italy and I've forgotten.
