June 27, 2026 – Texas

Today was a long day. For a few weeks now, AJ has had me 3D printing things for the vendor day in the neighborhood. This was originally something she was supposed to do with AE, but the last time we were in Eagle Pass, she booked her final dental appointment for this same day. So it ended up being just AE and me doing the vendor day while she went to Mexico for her last visit by herself.

Sitting with AE all day in the sun trying to sell 3D printed items was not a good time, to say the least. All he wanted to do was go play with his “friends” from the neighborhood. The plan was for this to help raise money for the hunting/adventure camp he had coming up in July. Explaining to AE that this was for his camp and he needed to help wasn’t an easy task, but we made it through the day, and we actually sold out of everything.

After we wrapped up, AJ called on her way home to let me know the procedure went fine and she was headed back. Since she wasn’t familiar with the route I usually take, it ended up taking her almost 7 hours to get home.
