Local Venues

In the last decade, I’ve seen the inside of a number of motel and hotel rooms in El Paso. (El Paseo del Notre). With the latest venue change, back to a motel we were at a few years ago, the truck stop is less convenient.

However, Saturday morning, Grace and I did make it to the truck stop. I get teased about my predilection for this type of food, but the grub really is good. Plentiful, inexpensive and just plain good. Local color is an important part of travel.

For dinner, Saturday night, it was Jaxon’s. again, a local chain and favorite. Big old beef tenderloin, and for some reason, it was just about the best I’ve ever had. Or so it seemed. With the two Leos, Grace and Bubba, and the two Sagittarius, me and Cookie, I think we should’ve been run out of the place long before we left. After a full day, it was all a little crude.

Sunday morning, this Virgo met us at the door to the Pastry Chief.

“You were wrong,” she said, “April was good, but in May, I crashed my car, and I thought I was going to get another job, and move out, but I didn’t get it.”

Some days you win, some days you lose. Can’t please any Virgo types these days, and what, with Jupiter in the sign, you’d think Virgo would be the happening sign.

Got myself in trouble for some three-way action at the fair. Late Sunday afternoon, three girls show up, Capricorn, Leo and Pisces. Deal was, they wanted one reading for all three. Business was a little slow for me, so it was a three-way reading. A little later, I was chastised by the reader sitting next to me because I had been carrying on at a loud volume, “Kramer, I just wanted to reach over and tell you three to get a room.” At least they all had fun.
