We had a very enjoyable weekend. I went with Alicia's friends family to watch Alicia and her friends run in the Rodeo 10k run on Saturday and I also attended the Rice Alumni College weekend.

Alicia's freind's family is very nice. They are very funny people. Ofcourse that is what everybody says about us also. I guess we are all very funny people. We all had lunch at one of our favorite places after the run, IHOP.

Alumni College weekend was terrific, it ran Friday to Sunday. Now you might say what was I doing at the Rice Alumni weekend since I am not a Rice Alumni, I'm a University of Florida Alumni, but since my daughter is a Rice student, I was also invited to attend. At the Alumni College we had many classes that we could pick from to attend. I enjoyed 70 % of the classes I attended. I also skipped two classes because I was at the Rodeo run. The classes were very interesting. The Rice folks were very very nice. Rice also provided all the meals and the meals were excellent. One of the dinners was at the Petroleum Club, and boy was that good. I had forgotten how good the Petroleum Club was. I had been there once before when I was in the petroleum business many years ago. Till later.
