YeeHaw- Taste of Home

Shea and I just got home from the Texas American Saloon, right here in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Yep folks, we found ourselves a down-home honky-tonk full of line dancing Germans.
Decorated in Texas flags, license plates, fake rifles and old Garth Brooks' concert posters this place has it all...or at least Corona with lime, which is a welcomed taste of home. We showed the barkeep our Texas driver’s licenses, which he happily turned into show-and-tell with everyone behind the bar. We're the genuine article there and hope to start new careers consulting them on how best to Texas the place up some more.
My first suggestion was having Shea there every night in old Rocky Mountains and ropers, carrying a dip cup and beer but she quickly shot down that idea. We will be headed back every now and again for a little bit of home. Enjoy the website...http://www.texas-saloon.de/

Hey G & S...enjoying reading the comments about your adventures...B.J., Adrian, Carlos and I just got back from the Fiesta bowl, where we saw "the boys" beat OSU on the field and a Texan whip two of them in the bathroom too...what a great time!...Yoli and I will be traveling with the Eberts to Italy during spring break in March, and I was particularly interested in your experiences in Rome...Has Shea completely adopted the German lifestyle, or is she still shaving her armpits and using deodorant? Keep the comments coming... Rick Larkin

Geoff, It will give you someplace to wear your Longhorn sweater and be right at home. I even think they'd accept Shea (No....I know they would!)in her OSU stuff. Love you both, and keep up the story telling. Dad Keller
