I took Alaina to the San Jacinto Monument today.  We had an ok time.  They’ve got the park closed off now so that you can’t even drive up to the monument unless it’s open and pay per person for entrance.  The same goes for the Battleship Texas.  It really stinks because it used to be an easy trip, but the entrance I always use is now blocked off because there isn’t a booth to take money at that entrance.  They aren’t charging a fortune, but it was an unexpected expense.
I am looking forward to a better year.  This past one was much better than the one before that, and I’m sure that it’s only going to get better.
Happy New Year!
