A couple I know in Round Rock have spotted Nolan Ryan two times at the Louisiana Longhorn restaurant.  I never saw him despite my many trips there.  Never had the heart to tell utee when I would suggest meeting there that I was really just hoping to spot Ryan. 
I'd have been okay with that. That dude is legend.

Nolan's son was a member of my brother's church in Round Rock.

Nolan would attend once in a while

my brother had a few conversations with him

Your closet-Longhorn brother is a wonderful man.  I'm not at all surprised he had the grace and intelligence to converse with Nolan. You could all learn some lessons from him.

High winds have knocked out power at various places around the state.  And, all of the states to the east of us.  

No grid issues, despite the fervent wishes of all of those who want to complain about it and use it as a political football.
