What is UP, Texas?
You keep swallowing our friends.
Just because you’re all big and warm,
have really good food and music,
doesn’t mean you have to take
everyone away.

Okay, Okay.
If you must.
I guess we can at least come to visit.
And party hard when they’re about to go.
Which is exactly what we did last weekend.

Stephanie and Trip have packed their belongings
and made the move to Houston.
Jill hosted a “See You Later” party
and we made a weekend out of it.
Friends from Kansas City came to town
just to say goodbye.
It was bittersweet.

So long, friends!
We’ll miss you!
