Surprise Visit

We got a welcome visit the other day . . . RR, a friend from our NC days, was in the area visiting his father, so he stopped by for a brief chat.  We hadn't seen him in several years, so it was neat to catch up for a little while.  He's still going strong at Baylor U., still liking the multiple opportunities for barbecue-scarfing that Texas offers, still a rabid Tar Heel fan . . . which means, among other things, that he understands that true barbecue comes from swine, not kine.  A good combination in an english professor, I'd say.
