Today in Waco we were lured into the Health Camp Burger joint.

It looks like a Dairy Queen and sells similar food. There was nothing particularly healthy about the food. But the staff had on t-shirts which I can't remember what they said, but it sounded like they all won some health contest or a competition at a health meet or something like that. So maybe the employees were healthy.

Another hypothesis was that the place was named after a health camp that either is or was nearby. (Edited to add that some web site says the founder named it after an egg farm in the midwest.)

Oh well. It was fun looking at all the pictures they had of similar older burger joints around the state. Two were in Austin: Top Notch and Dirty Martin's.

I was in Dallas for my mother's birthday and did not expect to get anything done. However, I did bring my laptop and was able to get a bit of writing in while other people were napping.

Unfortunately, it was difficult and boring work again.

In today's excerpt, the poodle is thinking in rhyme while getting his ears scratched.

Behind the left ear,
Behind the right,
Always the same
Every night.

Left cheek and right cheek,
Chin and back.
Skull and shoulders,
She had the knack.

A little more on this side,
A little more on that.
You'd think it would get old one day,
But never had yet.
