Nuevo Laredo Cantina

This is the Mexican place not far off Howell Mill, past the outlets. Good food not too different from Jalisco’s, huge portions. Great people watching…all varieties of people…students, professionals, no kids when we were there at 8 pm. We ran into Linda (Hal’s wife) and her daughter, who’s now at the University of Maryland (she did have a varsity soccer scholarship, but was injured). Ceil had taught her in a 2-year old SPdL SS class (maybe it was second grade?). http://www.nuevolaredocantina.com/home.php

Directions…Piedmont to 85 South…North on 75…Exit Howell Mill…Right on Chattahoochee Avenue…Continue about a mile…it’s on the right. I hear it's one of Lang's favorites.

I'm starting to feel the pressure of planning out the SF trip detail. We are also returning on the redeye...taking off around 9 pm SF time and landing around 5 am. I knew it would be a killer, but we get a full last day. I'm resigned to having a rental car for most of the time, since public transportation fares will rack up for the five us anyway. Last night I had Anna and Matthew next to me as I looked at some web sites. Matthew said he wants to go see the Cubs, not the Giants and Pirates.

Sunday Will won the one award Mt. Paran gives, for the player with the best example / attitude...out of over 300 players. Twenty minutes after he was the hero of the game he was dumping out kitty litter.

See Salty's debut at first yesterday? Early jitters, but that throw to second is as tough as it gets. Nice dive...he should be ok. Coworker Randy is extending a business trip to see relatives in Milwaukee, and says he's going to a Brewers/Giants game. Lang is headed to San Antonio for the Finals.

It will be a typical week for the Murphys...
...Monday Ceil and I are eating Italian at the coach's dinner.
...Tuesday Will has a game.
...Thursday I'm supposed to go out with the small group guys.
...this weekend Will plays in a tourney in Ellijay, so we'll see if we get to see any of the mountains.
