Lunch At Casa Rio |
That is also true when walking around in the summer heat outside. Once I checked into my hotel I changed into shorts and headed out. I remembered River Walk from a previous visit, over 20 years ago, however enjoyed experiencing the architecture again. This was government money well spent putting America back to work during the "Great Depression". To bad the same was not done during the "Great Recession" and we would have something to see for the billions spent. So I guess still having banks is a good thing? We still benefit from the projects of the 1930's in our national parks and so many other worthwhile destinations.
Do not let TSA deter you for escaping. They seem to be well trained and do not want to hold up the lines any more than we want to wait. Attitudes have changed and I am sure they have seen it all, by now.
I had three days of business meeting in San Antonio and overall enjoyed the whole trip. I have made many similar trips and getting out as Rhonda is always a fun challenge and add excitement. San Antonio was a good destination. Plan your escape.
Casa Rio a little later in day |
The difference is that much of the money spend during the depression was spent on work projects. The Obama stimulus was a huge amount of money that went to cronies like Solyndra and other contributors and he got very little bang for the tax payer dollars. It was just rubbing salt in the wound when Obama and Biden joked a few years later that there were not shovel ready jobs and that it was all a big scam. First president since they started keeping stats that had not one single quarter that hit 3% growth. Criminal how the debt is blowing past $20 Trillion.
ReplyDeleteThe beach houses on Jones beach and at some places down the Jersey Shore are still standing from the work done during the depression.
