Day 148

We got up this morning and after breakfast we drove to San Antonio.  I wanted to go to one of the "real" San Antonio gun shows.  The one we went to before was lousy.  This one was big.  It wasn't as big as the old Expo shows, but it was the biggest I've been to in years.  Most of the vendors were selling new firearms.  There were a few with older stuff, but nothing that I thought was too interesting.  The prices ranged from good (internet) to "you have to be kidding".  On guy was selling a lower for $150 that you could buy a few tables away for $70.  The only thing we bought was a package of Girl Scout cookies.

After the show we went to Popeye's for lunch.  I wanted to try them because I'd seen them on TV.  The service was really slow.  The food was OK though.  While we were there two kids cam in selling small packages of cookies.  We bought one just to support them.

Before we went home we stopped at another gun store.  I'd stopped there over a year ago.  It's a big place, but I didn't get to spend much time there because Ellen in the dog were parked outside in the heat.  I'd been wanting to return veer since.  This time the dog wasn't with us.  We went through the whole place.  It had an amazing collection of stuff.  There were guns of all kinds, ammo, reloading stuff, gun cases, clothes.  The place was packed.

After that it was drive home.  The car turned 10,000 miles on the way back.  When we got home I started to read a book I'd bought at the estate sale yesterday.  I fell asleep.  When I woke up it was time to get the mail and have dinner.  After dinner it was movies and reading.
