beau, sorry to hear about big oliver....also saw this am,that rev. mcnair fron oaks pres. passed away...teddy,beau,candy,greg s. and many others went to oaks in past years...

Bj Brady '65

Beau-  So sorry to hear about Big Oliver. Not much can soothe your soul right now, but I will try. When our Golden Retriever died, me and wife and daughter watched him be put to sleep so we could be with him. I was so torn up that I called my Pastor and asked if dogs go to Heaven.  He told me that if they were pets and family members that it was his opinion that yes, they would and that we will see them again for eternity. I never asked another question about this. I just accepted it with my whole being. Still believe that it is true.

Sorry, my dear friend., Love, Bernard

Bought a new Ford edge yesterday. The experience was not too bad, until they took us to the little room to talk to the money guy. He launched into another sales pitch for extended warranties and anti theft policies that made our heads spin. Oh well at my age I am not going to be fixing the car if it breaks down and I won't be chasing a thief who might break a window. Oh and wait their 's more for just a little extra we can protect you against identity theft! His best line was," I couldn't give you a lower price if you were my mother." The car color is called ginger Ale Mettalic. Now that was a sign. Ginger Ale is Ferrell's beverage of choice. I am afraid I will probably wreck the thing while talking to the little tiny girl they have trapped in the dashboard. She seems to be ok and is always friendly enough making phone calls for me, but I wonder where does she go to the bathroom?

Anyone know what happened to LeRoy Vackar?  He and Larry Vackar are twins, Fran is their sister.  Larry and Fran are listed on this site, LeRoy is not listed.

Pat Brantley (Ross)

Beau, we had three great pyrs.  They each had very different personalities, rut they were very good pets (well, the last one was a pain for me, but she took are of the kids who came over.  I know how devastated you must feel.  We have cried many tears for our pets.  When we were all young and dan rather was making such a big deal about hurricane Carla I started packing a box with canned goods to go to a shelter.  My father came home and laughed at me for packing dog and cat food.  He said "we can't go to a shelter.  They don't allow pets".  I unpacked.  My daddy was a major mess, but we always stopped to bury animals an take home the ones that needed us.

the vackar bros.....one graduated in 63....leroy...larry was in 64 class....he was in army/served in vietnam in my  battalian/nha trang...they still live in houston area...

Kay Watters '65 (Greene)

Dang, Beau and all, I didn't check in for a few days and you all needed me!   Beau, so sorry about Big 'Ollie.  I've laughed and saved those big cat pics on my office compuer, and when things got rough at times put 'em on my desktop so they would make me chuckle in the mornings.  I shall miss 'em too, and all the wonderful stories you spin with them as your target! Big cats!  God knew what he was doing when he gave us animals, to walk along our lives, with their shorter lifespans. Then we go out and rescue another and the whole series goes on. If it was the other way around, there would be a lot of deserted animals that noone wanted upon our demise.

Lordy, Lordy, Miss Molly it has been freezin out here.  I'm so glad it is warming up.  I've been raking the trillion leaves that totally cover every sq. in. of my yard and then so.  I have a few trees that perished in the drought, that I'm burning along with the leaves as well.  I have severe carpal tunnel, and when I do this, I can hardly type, such as now.  I now have a bad back I'm nursing as well. I still have more burning and more leaves to do.

Shout out at Lloyd.....I too have invested in a Ford Edge '11. I planned not to get another sunroof, but this one has two. leather seats and all the bells and whisels, and had to have the screen w/phone and Navigation as well.  Well, it's been a year and I have yet to figure out the Nav. screen, probably why the last owner gave up and sold it. I currently have it in the body shop, a friend hit it in the back, I have a hitch that pretty well tore up his F150 truck in the front.....we are not speaking now...It is such a smooth riding car though.

I am reporting that Johnny Manziel, the A&M johnny football era had ended!  Baawaaaaa.  He is taking his smartass to the Pros.  It may be a learning curve for him there!

I still have the two great-grands living out here, and Grammy took them to the groc. store and let them ride in one of those carts where they can both sit, 5 yrs. and 3yrs.  if one can imagine a small 5' 1" grandmother pushing that thru Krogers in College Station, and I and they loved every moment of it.  They were excellent and we bought everything "they" needed....muscles hurt the nexy day, back, etc.  They are so dear to me and they always look like they've opened up the biggest present when they see me and  they will stay with me on a various day I babysit.  They have become a big part of my life and salved? (sp) the pain of losing Michael, 3 yrs  ago on Sat. 11th.  God's plan as well.  We are made to go on.

It is really raining out here, guess I'll get another cup of Joe and enjoy the peace of night.  Take care all. Beau, wish we could solve your ills for ya. 

James King '65

Scotty,

Thanks for the info on the Vackar brothers.  I didn't know LeRoy graduated in '63.

Beau Wann, Jr.

     Hey, Teddie, Scotty, BJ, Pat, Kay, many more and others too, thank you so much for the condolences.  Kay, you all helped, with friends like youall, we dont need anything else!  Sorry youre hurting so much Kay. GREAT GRAND KIDS???? Wow, are you lucky there! But you dont look old enough to have grand kids, let alone great grand kids. Hey, lets all go to Kays house, she's found the fountain O youte.

     I think I am gonna invent a time machine! Gotta reread THE TIME MACHINE maybe get some pointers. I dont think I'd go so far into the future like the H.G. Wells character did, 10,000 years, in fact I wouldnt go into the future at all. I'd at least go back a year...Katy and Oliver would be alive and we would still have a home. Maybe go back 25 years. That was a good time, and then look forward to things, and knowing what was gonna happen, I could at least correct a few things.

     Oh, and I'd make it a two seater, so anyone could go back with me, leave me where I needed to be, then take the TM back to the future where we came from, and pick up another classmate, and then go back to where the 2nd person wanted to be, then the 3rd could go back to where we came from, and pick up another person, and repeat the process...it would be great if we could change the things we wanted to change...

     Maybe build the thing as big as a school bus, OR A TRAIN, then ALL that wanted to go could, and be dropped off at the time and place of their choice. Of course we could arrange for a designated driver, a wonderful soul that didnt want to go back and stay. Shucks, they could ferry us all over the place...yeah I know, aint no such thing as a time machine..."if ifs and buts were candy and nuts, what a merry Christmas we would have"-----Dandy Don Meredith...

     Hey BJ, you know, back when I was playing softball, and really loved it, cause I was good at it, I asked our minister at the time at Oaks Pres, Dave Dyers, if there would be softball in heaven. His reply was close to what your minister told you..."if you need softball in heaven, there will be softball in heaven"...Well, if there is a softball in heaven, I think I will just sit in the bleachers with Big Oliver and Katy and Rocky, and Tucker, and Libby and Callie and Goldie and Thomas Jefferson, and Abe Lincoln et all...oh, and Jesus...yeah, that would be good...

    Lloyd, my beloved will be looking for a new car for her once the house stuff is settled. She has an Exploder, the big brother/sister to the Edge. We dont like it because gas mileage not good enough, and it just shakes you to pieces on a rough road, or going over those furschlerginer speed bimps. Go over em crooked and get whip lash, and that aint no lie!

    Did you ask your salesman why he didnt like his mother?  Oh, did they tell you about GAP insurance? I thought it was about Levi Jeans, and didnt see why I needed to insure my jeans. But live and loin I allus say. Actually GAP insurance is for when the VEEEhicle is gnu. It is the difference, GAP, between what is owed on the VEEEhicle and what the your usual insurance policy covers, which I found out, is not what is owed. When I bought my last truck, thats when I loined about GAP insurance.

    Last I went to see about trading my truck in, went to a dodge dealer, and found a truck I liked, and the first thing the weasel asked me was "how much do you want your monthly payment to be"?
Not to be out done, I replied..."$10 dollars ought to be about right, unless you can do better than that"!  He said to be serious, and I said the same thing back at em. Then I lit into him like a tornado into a windmill, not physically, but fugurativly...I said I want the lowest price, and lowest interest rate, then we can determine how many months and how much per...

    I left and came home and took a nap.  Ifin any of youse youtes go auto hunting again, take a pipe and pretend to smoke it, unless you really want to smoke it. Car salesmen hate pipe smokers! They call em "THINKERS", and dont want to deal with em! I just happen to have a couple of old pipes around here that I will lease to anyone that wants to try!  How much you want your payment to be amonth????......

    I too have...had the lady in the dashes sister...I call her Peggy Sue...She calls me Dave...if you dont speak fast enough or loud enough when she says "phone or line in, please say a command"! If you arent quick enough, she goes through her spiel about everything under the sun that she does, or you can do..."Dave? Dave, you really dont need to pull the plug...Dave? really, I'm feeling much better now...Daaaaaa.....

    And the beat goes on...Been two whole days without Oliver....and the difference is noticeable...

Can we go out?                                                            Can we come back in?

 
Hmm, wonder how this tastes?                                   ooo yuk! Dang, why did you let me eat that?

I'm so pretty, I'm so pretty...                                         What the heck is all this white stuff?

Well, here we are in Heaven! lets stay together...                    Big Oliver and his little bro Sammy

AAAAhhhh...Doesnt this sun feel heavenly....see ya soon mom and pop...see ya soon...

Beau Wann, Jr.

     Howdy myne fyne waltripynes.  Lazy overcast Sunday nafteroon. Dont tell anhyone, but we played hooky from church. Yeah I know, heatherns!  Went up to Chappel Hill to check on the old homestead. Got the slab in and outside and some inside walls framed. Wind blowing a hunert miles an hour. Well, I did pick the top of a mountain to build a house, so I guess I should expect some wind eh!

     Stopped in at Buccees in Waller for breakfast, and man they have a megabunch of stuff there, and of course the best restrooms on the highway. I was holding hands with my beloved, as we strolled through the beavers den, when my beloved says, "your hands sure are dry and rough"...to which I replied, "well, I'm a guy, they're supposed to be dry and rough, and dirty"...Of course, I get the look. We soon broke apart from each other and she went bounding through the "goodies" section, which is about a acre of all kinds of stuff. Directly she finds me over at the "huntin and fishin stuff", and drags me over to "home stuff". Says, "try this lotion on your hands"...Oh man, do I have to? Jeeze loueeze! I drop stuff all day long, now my hands are gonna be slickern two eels in a barrel of snot. Wont even be able to grip the steering wheel. Run all over the road and hit a zillion cars, and they're gonna put me in jail, all because you dont want my hands to be rough and dry! " I complain... " It's made from goat cheese and olive oil and other stuff thats good for you, so JUST TRY IT, and then pass judgement! "

     "Grumble grumble dirtysnickelfritzenhokenpokensnazalky"....So I pump the pump, and put a little o the goat snarky and olive duky on my hands...Hmmmm...Well, she was right...again. I'll have to admit, this is really different than any other hand lotion I've tried, but then it is 12 dollars. I dont even know the name of it, something like GOAT CHEESE HAND CREAM...I guess I wont loose my "man standings" by using this stuff, after all, it is made from goat tricky  trockey, and as we all know, on page 984, chapter 11teen paragraph 1  of the MANS HANDBOOK, it clearly states that it's ok to use goat trickey trockey on your hands, provided, it has a picture of a goat on the label, to identify you as an old goat. It does, and I am!

     It really is good stuff.  I dont think you can use it as sandwich spread, but then there's mustard, and when I use mustard, I do get it all over my hands, and face and beard, and shirt. I never noticed that it made my hands soft and smooth though, but it does taste good.

    Hey Wayne, you make it to houghston? My next door neighbor "BOB" , the one that ran into a tree in his own yard with his truck, and spent all last year in the hospital, has two snow shovels in his garage. Be prepared, I allus say. Might get a blizzard down here someday, and pigs might fly too.

    Hey Jan, Mr Lapatina passed away last week.

Ok, supper is ready so I guess I better end thiis.

This was at the old house. Jack was trying to teach Cooper to doggie paddle.

Kay Watters '65 (Greene)

Hey Beau, with all you and Diane have been through, it is o.k. that you didn't hold up the portals of the church and you actually missed a few. you;ve been through a lot, been there myself. Actually I think Jesus was a Liberal.

Beau Wann, Jr.

      Hey Kay, thanks for the special dispensation for missing church.  Actually I was surprised that Diane suggested we miss this morning so we could just bum around together. She had no duties today, and the choir was not singing and the handbell choir not playing, so why not miss

      We've been through a lot it's true, but nothing to what you had to go through. Just know we always think of you and your fajmily, and always get a prayer for more better days for you and all in our class that have suffered the ultimate tragedy.

      Got on my gnu goat milk handlotion...man, it is so wonderful...yeah yeah yeah...it is pretty good stuff. I'm thinking about getting us a goat or two when we move to the country, and yall all can come out and let the goat squirt milk on you and then I can throw olive oil on you, and youre good to go....  I generally dont use lotion much, cept for aftershave, that kind of stuff. I bemember in my youte, when I had hair, I used aquanet on it, Dep, Dippity do, and other  Bondo products for my hair. I've had my coif so stiff, a force 5 huricane wouldnt besmirch it. Maybe thats why I have no hair...duh, ya think! And when I had a date, or just going out, I would marinate in Brute, or Jade East, or Royal Copenhagen, or Geofry Bean...

     I found a couple of old bottles of royal Copenhagen and Geoffry Bean, and that stuff is rank....it would gag a maggot with tennis shoes on. WOW. I put a dab of the Royal Copenhagen on and couldnt get rid of the smell. Even the dogs, who smell like dogs, ran away from me. Cats all hid. Had to take a shawr, and in the middle of the day to and it wasnt even Saturday.

     I'm sure yall woulda wanted to be here for supper. I had left over spaghetti mixed with mac and cheese, mixed with carrots and peas mixed with black eye peas and rice and cheddar cheese on top. Dang, I are a gourmet cook eh what!  My beloved wasnt quite as adventuresome as I was, she just had mac and cheese, oh yeah, the mac and cheese had ground beast in it and 3 peppers and onions and cream of mushroom cheese. My own concoction of course. I was thinking about adding mustard or A1 sauce or somethoing. Well it was good anywayhow! ! !

     I was thinking about not going to Fudds Tuesday, but reconsidered. I think I'll be there! I'd kind of like to see some old friends gnu again!

    Hey Kay, when, if we get moved, you will have to come down and spend a day or so with us. Lynn in hearne, you too. Yall can come sit on the porch, and let the servants I will be hiring, wait on us. We can have mint julips and ice tea on the back porch, for sundown, and coffee and a hint of your favorite libation on the front porch, and watch the sun come up.  You can have your choice of whatever cats we have left, and or a dog to scratch behind the ears as it looks up lovingly in your eyes.

     I was thinking about hiring some young girls to bring us drinks. You kinow, like they have on the golf courses around the whirld. Back in my youte, whenever I attempted to play golf, if you were thirsty, you had better have brought a flask with you, or jump in one of the water hazards. First time I sawr the girl/drink carts on a course, was at the golf course on gessner and clay rd. My boys and I were playing, well, was just driving the cart, and kicking the ball around. Billy and Kevin were playing. Those boys could whack a golf ball 300 plus yards, and straight too. Anyway a really cute/gorgeous young lady in very nice shorts and stylish top, drove a cart up to us and asked if I wanted a drink. Hmmmm, was that a trick question?  At first I thought Allen Funt was doing his Candid Camera schtick on us. The boys assured us that she was legit, and got us all a real cold beer.

      Boys got onto me cause I kept following the cart girl around in our cart. After a few encounters with the cart girl, I wasnt allowed to drive the cart anymore. I guess they took their cue from when I fell out of the cart on a sharp turn, and I was driving. Well, I shot a 62 and went home...I think....I really wanted to find the drink cart girl, man I was in love...again! Of course, she was about 21 and I was 20 something....yeah right....Ok, I'm getting sleepy, guess the Jack Daniels honey has finally kicked in.

     Night yalllllllll...hmmmm lots of Ls on the keeyboooosarted....byeeeeee

Heres another picture of a wierd looking eagle out here at the two lakes wetlands.

Here's my beloved charming a flock of eagles...

Jan Barnes '65 (Nimtz)

Beau,  I did see the Lapetina obit in the Houston paper online.  I never really knew him, but his wife followed my "patrol" shift throughout CO for many years on Tuesdays.  I would finish my neighborhood drive looking for bad guys and suspicious loking vehicles and then stop at her house to turn over the official log book and metalic signs to afix to ones car.

What is happening with Bob Darden?  Was he ever able to move back into his house?  House up for sale or just sitting empty?

I'm anxious for your mansion to be completed so we can have a mint julip on your porch as we're traveling down 290 to Cypress to visit #2 son.  Keep us posted!

Beau Wann, Jr.

     Hey Jan, as far as we know, Bob is still convalescing at in a rehab unit with alternate bouts in the hospital. It has been over a year since his accident.  His daughter Shelly moved from Denver to stay in his house and take care of it and him. We have been so busy with moving and storing things and tweaking our little rent cottage and taking care of critters and just everyday life, we havent inquired as to bobs health and situation. I will today. We also didnt even send out any christmas cards this year. We bought some, but never opened the box. Maybe I will send them out in July.

    You can count on those mint julips and settin on the porch. I guess I'd better learn how to make a mint julip havent I. I dont recollect ever having one, but they do sound good dont they!

Oliver and Cooper playing in the bale of hay I bought them at the start of winter. Best 10 dollars I've ever spent. The boys just loved burrowing in it, and sleeping in it and just rolling around in it. It does smell good.

Here's cooper playing fetch with a tennis ball. Nah, cant lie, the ball is just  a prop he ignored.

Pat Brantley (Ross)

Beau you might be able to skip the mint juleps and just serve a coke jack Daniels slushie.  I think they called a it a frozen jack coke.  I had one (shared one with four other friends) at a Mexican restaurant near boerne.  It was very strong, but good.  

Beau Wann, Jr.

Pat. one Jack slushie coming up. You like that with or without a twist? I'll bet a Jack Tennesee Honey slushie would be even more better!

Jackie Crowe (Finch)

Ha!  Okay I'll take a Jack Tennessee Honey Slushie!  Happy New Year!

Remember tomorrow night is Fuddrucker's, the tables better be full!!  See you there - J

Robert Derrick

Beau,

You reminded me of when us guys just started shaving and dating that we would get all lathered up in English Leather or Hai Kariti, or what ever to try and get the girls to want to kiss all over us on a date. We could walk by a hog pin and get noticed. Or so we thought. Do any of you remember that, or was it just me. Teddie, what kind of stuff did you use that got Fran and has kept her all these years. I know my best friend Gary Jorden used Old Spice and him  and Marilyn are still togehter after 47years.

Teddie Jordan

Robert, I have often been accused of being old fashioned, and I am. So the answer to your question is, There is just something irresistable about a Right Guard man!

A couple of weeks ago when it was so cold, I stopped off at our vet's office to pick up some medicine for Gus while out running some errands. And the young girl at the reception desk said, "Mr. Jordan, (I hate it when good looking young girls call me Mr. Jordan!), what is that great cologne you're wearing, I really like it?" Well my old worn out brain shifted into high gear to answer her question, and I stood there kind of goofy and digging my toes into the floor, sucking in my belly and blushing, when I realized what she was smelling. On the way over there, while stopped at a red light, I had applied some hand lotion that Fran had gotten me for my dry hands, and also rubbed a little on my dry wind burned face and even some on my dry cracking lips. So you can bet that I'm staying pretty lathered up with that stuff now days!

Teddie Jordan

Robert, I forgot to ask, is the Derrick Road contingent from Hempasota going to make it in to Fudd's tomorrow night? I sure hope so.

Please tell your neighbor and our mutual good friend, the one who doesn't know how to spell his last name, to be sure and come too, and to bring some deer pictures. I'd bring mine but there aren't any to show, at least not yet.

Lloyd Pond

I have a bottle of cologne from the 1966 - 1968 time frame. It was from an international series one fragrance for a country. This one was called Brazil. Well the reason I still have it is Ferrell said , "stop wearing that stuff!" So there you go.  When I worked on cars and did manual labor I used gasoline to clean my hands. Graduated to Go Jo and then finished off the job with Corn Huskers lotion. Now that was manly. Now a days I have to moisturizer my face every day, Lubriderm with sun block. If I shave, I look acceptable. If I don't shave,  Ferrell says, "If you go out like that you will scare the children."  

Sold my ten year old Saturn to a young man and his wife today. They were so happy.  They looked at the odometer 106 K miles and exclaimed Wow what low mileage . Probably could have gotten more for the car but I think these kids needed it. Good thing I don't do this car stuff for a living.

Beau Wann, Jr.

     Hey Robert, I forgot about English Leather. That was one of my favorite, but if you were down wind of me you could smell me coming for about 200 miles. I still have some bottles of Eng Leather and one bottle of Jade east. My favorite is Old Spice. I use it on regular days, and on days I ride my motorcycle, I use Brut. Stands to reason doesnt it!  The bottle of Jade east is still in it's original box. I gave that to my dad sometime in the early 60s methinks. I also have a small bottle in it's box, of Elvis cologne. I have never opened it, and dont recollect just where I got it!

      Anytime my grandaughters smell Old Spice, they say, "this smells just like Beaupa"...it's nice to be remembered!  I really like english leather, but it is a tad strong. Just a dab is all you need. Hells bells, just open the bottle and stand next to it. And to think I use to bathe in the stuff.  Feel sorry for any of the ladies I went out with, that and the cologne too.

     Some of the cologne they recycle and keep the scent, and give it a new name. Royal Copenhagen was Royal Hawaiian. Had a bottle of both and they smell identical.  

     I was thinking..."oh lord martha, turn out the lights and hide, that ol boy is thinkin again"...Allright, that's enough of that. They were good thoughtts...now I cant remember what it was I was a thinkin about!

    Hey Lloyd, thats good news that 106K miles is low mileage. Our Exploder ought to go for a bunch, cause it's just a baby with 92K miles. I always hate buying or selling a car. Feel like I get cheated in both directions.

    Any of youse  youtes collect stamps? I did in the 50's when I was but a wee lad. I still have them, and the stamp book too. The only thing my dad didnt throw out when I went into the service. I wish he had thrown the stamps out and kept my baseball card collection. Probably worth, in todays market somewhere in the vacinity of 100K dollars. I had em all, Mickey Mantle etc.

      Now I cant remember which ones I had, but I know I had a MM card. I'm drawing a blank on all the other baseball greats I had. I think Babe Ruth and Lou Gerhig, Ted Williams. Lou Gerhig and Ted Williams were my alltime favorite players. They may have even been reproductions for all I know, but gottem in packs with bubble gum. I think they were TOPPS.  My first fielders glove was a three fingered Rawlings or Spaulding Lou Gerhig model glove. Dont you just love the smell of new leather and neats foot oil?

    Wonder why they call it neats foot oil, cause it's from boiled cow shinbones. And who was the first person that thought, "hay, if I boil some cow shin bones, I can get neats foot oil! ! !   I believe I was talking about stamp collections wasnt I! Anyway, sawr an add in a magazine for stamps from the MYSTIC STAMP COMPANY. And a couple of others that I bought from back in the 50's, are still in bidness. Nice to see something is still the same from back then.  The problem with ordering from companies like that, is that with your order, they send other stamps for your perusal, and you have to send them back to the company if you dont buy them. Of course they are hoping that you buy them cause it was a lot of trouble to send them back, the swine!

     I put up a boid feeder in the back yard, and nary a single boid has visited it, yet we have zillions of boids. We have at least a half dozen cardinals that frequent our yard. Early on, they hung around unasaulted by anything. But lately the mocking birds have been chasing them off. Wonder why? What do the mockingbirds have against cardinals? Had a disagreement with my new 6.98 bird feeder. I hung it up, and then it fell down, injuring my hand . IT DREW BLOOD! ! ! Of course I didnt see the blood until it was all over my jeans and shirt and boots and bird feeder. Wasnt a major cut, but sure did bleed. I gave that bird feeder what for after I discovered my wounds! So far, the feeder is still full, and nary a bird hast partaken one seed. Well, it is Kroger brand boid seed, maybe they're holding out for a name brand, some gourmet boid seed! Well, they're pissin me off, so I might just take it away and give em nothing.

     Lots of times I find myself bleeding from a cut or scrape that I dont remember getting. Just look down, and my arm or hand is bleeding. I remember my dad was that way. I'd see him walking around with his arm bleeding, and I would point this out to him. Of course he would just grumble and keep on going. 

     Time to deplane! Guess we will make it to fudds unless it snows. And from my expert observations, it sure feels like snow to me. I am an expert, I have my doctorate in weather predicting.  Here, I will show you some of my expertise..."tomorrow, there will be weather, whether you want it or not"...and you can quote me.

Happy trails... 

Pat Brantley (Ross)

Didn't any of you guys wear canoe aftershave?  It was the only one I remember liking,  my nephew dropped a bottle of men's cologne in his car.  I thought we were going to have to strip the carpet out of the car.  It was terrible.  Windows must be left down.

Tommy, looks like a great site and some good music, thanks. 

Fran and I came over to Lake Charles yesterday to visit her hunting lease at the Lauberge ranch, where she is pursuing that wily and ever so elusive prey known as the slot machine.
