San Antonio Bound...

May 4th through 7th saw Claude in San Antonio, Texas. Kentucky League of Cities has an insurance company that provides insurance for Kentucky cities and city officials. Claude sits on that Board as an officer. He is 1st Vice President. There is a company that provides training to insurance companies to keep them up-to-date with rules and regulations, etc. KLC invited Claude to participate in this training at their expense. Claude accepted their invitation and off he went.

He flew from Lexington on Wednesday, May 4th. He drove himself to the airport. I told him I would take him and pick him up but he said he felt like he should take his car and leave it at the airport. That turned out to be a very good decision.

He sent several pictures of the trip. I will post three here. The funny things about this first picture is the name tag. It has him as President of Kentucky League of Cities. He is 1st Vice President and will be President next year. This was a source of much fun at KLC back here in Kentucky. The picture was sent to them and they forwarded it to the standing President. Great fodder for jokes and fun.

This is 'River Walk'. Claude stayed at the Hyatt Regency on the River Walk. I told Claude this picture is 'puzzle worthy'. Love a good jigsaw puzzle and this would definitely be a beauty.

Thursday evening they had a reception and this was their view from the reception. That is the Alamo. Nice view. Very nice view. 

Claude had a good trip. His trip home was not so great.

He and his traveling companion were at the airport in San Antonio at 9am Saturday. Their flight out of San Antonio to Atlanta was postponed five, yes, that is five times. Not a good sign. By then they missed their connecting flight in Atlanta and had to find another flight out of Atlanta. Eventually that happened but not without a lot of maneuvering. Claude made it back to Lexington, got in his Jeep and made it home by 1:30am Sunday morning. I was very grateful he took his Jeep. I would have been sitting at that airport forever.
