Plano Texas

First week in Texas is over. Started off a little hairy. On Tuesday Tornadoes ripped through Eastern Texas.



and this




Pretty standard work stuff. Not too much going on in Texas besides the Tornado. It was pretty crazy being 30 miles from multiple tornadoes and hearing the FM DJs talking about evacuating towns and what not.

Fi is flying in tonight. Her friend from college just got engaged and she lives in Dallas, they are going to show us around town this weekend.

I checked into my hotel at about 2:30 today. Right in the middle of a leadership through Jesus convention. I'm literally surrounded by Christians, maybe like a thousand of them. Half of them are kids.

Also for some reason there is a whole hallway dedicated to Mao. The Chinese communist leader Mao. Its a little weird. Especially in Texas.



Also there is a Buddha statue. Which seems a little odd because China and Tibet don't really get along.



Not really sure what they are going for there but I hope at night they come alive and fight each other like in Night at the Museum.
