Why I Can’t Go To Texas Anymore…: The Historical Monument

Fredericksburg, Texas

Got here about 11:00 am. Was running low on funds, so ran the old “hey, you want to buy a couple of pounds of great weed” scam on not one, but two groups of local idiots. Left both groups waiting and totally fried on the quarter ounce that Pam gave me, “just in case”. Walked a few blocks to a road next to the train tracks. Upscale houses. Came to a big celebration, fireworks and everything. Pulled my Stetson down to try and hide my face, but still got a couple of strange looks. Big celebration was the 130th anniversary of the erection of a wooden water tower by one of the town’s founders. Accidentally knocked a box of fireworks off a table onto a grill being used for steaks. Skyrockets went off, three hit the wooden water tower. Tower on fire, people yelling and rushing to fight it. I was able to run the other way and get on a slow moving train. This is turning into a bad week, for sure.
