tex takes off

I'm leaving shortly to take Tex to the airport. He's been good-natured, not squeamish, diligent, thrifty (that part might not be so healthy) and brave. What a boy scout. He's not a native of Texas though so that state cannot claim him.

Anyways, our Tongan bonecarver neighbor S has already adopted him. Tex may even have gone through a few Tongan marriage ceremonies while he's been here. His wife, D, may (or may not) be surprised to hear that.

Meanwhile, he's taking his last outdoor shower. I will not speculate on how clean he is as the shower is fully exposed and he's not. Thank goodness for small favors.

The Chung family will miss his open heart, sensitivity and handyman skills.

Mahalo and Aloha, Tex.
