Our time in Lubbock was far too short (as we find ourselves saying often to friends here and there) as we headed off to Elizabeth's dad's new place on the shores of Lake Nasworthy in San Angelo (home of the San Angelo Outlaws' ice hockey team). Our accompaniment for the drive was Tex-Mex polka.

We exposed ourselves to some of San Angelo's finest cultural offerings, including swimming in the lake, dissecting mollusks (live ones! In Texas!), and eating Tex-Mex food followed by Sonic milkshakes served by waitresses on roller skates.
