Dear Governor: Nice House!

This week was our first post-Christmas outing and as you can imagine, Domonic and I couldn't stop talking about all our Christmas loot. Here's the lowdown: Domonic got lots of video games and some regular games too (including a chess set from me). He got two puzzles, some lovely pots for planting and two watches: one stop watch and one regular. He also got plenty of new clothes; he was looking pretty sharp that night!
Then we were off to take a free tour of the Texas Governor's Mansion. Domonic put the stop watch to good use throughout our evening excursion. It took us twenty minutes to drive to the Governor's mansion, find a parking spot and get in line for the tour. It took us forty-four minutes to get through the line for the tour and it took us seven minutes to actually take the tour. We stopped for a nice shot in front of the Capitol Christmas tree and then after a quick trip to McDonald's for some ice cream, that was it for the evening. Can't wait until next week!
