Author’s Note: I’ve grown weary of writing about our craven Texas governor so I thought I’d return to a bit of narrative. This is about a motorcycle ride along the border, one of my favorite places, with a pal from down on the Rio Grande. Hope you like it. Also, TTTW will be one year old in a few weeks. Help me celebrate my weekly publication by sharing it, or subscribing in some fashion, free or paid. Numbers make a writer’s world go ‘round. - JM
Such terrific storytelling! I could just see those storms. Jim I really enjoy your writing. Please keep it up. (And don't let up on the bozo at the Capital!)
First things first: the post is time stamped 3:00 AM!!!! I didn’t read it until around 5:00 AM the morning you posted.🤪😁 I was too bleary eyed to comment then. But anyway, thank you for my tour of Texas. I have been in Texas 26 years and haven’t explored it enough. I loved the story about the boy that saved the lives of others. He sacrificed himself for others. It seems like a good story for Easter weekend.
What a magnificent piece of writing! I have always enjoyed your writing as a journalist, but this goes way beyond any newspaper piece I’ve ever read. Bravo!
As usual, your writing is so evocative and engaging. I felt like I was out there again, watching those big skies and the primordial play of nature across them. See you in the Broken Wheel Bar soon, my friend.
