Foraging for food

At H-E-B, even though the parking lot was full and the carts were few, we lucked into a magic moment just after a shift-change when there were checkers available. Our checker was busy composing a improvised name-tag, stuck on her polo shirt with Da-Glo orange "thank you" stickers. She said she'd be written up if her supervisor caught her without some sort of name identification. Wheatsville was pretty cleaned out. Fran's was hoppin' and boppin' and rife with SxSW stayovers. A Humvee with California plates actually fit between the stanchions of the old drive-up canopy. Fran's still keeps Selena, Michael Salgado, and Roberto Pulido y los Classicos on the jukebox.
