Deep in the Heart--of Saigon



While we were walking around Saigon, we got caught in a rainstorm and ran into a place called "Texas Beef and Steaks." We wound up staying there for a few hours and drinking beers with Wayne and Gil (the owner and his buddy), two Vietnam veterans who had moved back to after the war.

Wayne opened his restaurant because he decided he couldn't stand eating Vietnamese food for the rest of his life--we couldn't agree with him more! He made some excellent chili. Flying to Bali tomorrow...

  3. I can't believe you are already in Bali. Summer has gone so fast. Pat took a job in Dayton and is moving to Cinci in September. Enjoy yourselves. See you soon.
