I went with my friend Lisa Ocone (Remember? She’s in my book Curveballs: Sweet & Smokey Down The Barbeque Trail) and her family. They moved to Houston, Texas and I drove one of the U-Haul trucks down there.

They were going to Austin anyways to get bicycles for their kids, so I hounded them about going to the legendary Franklin Barbecue. They agreed. Their little tyke, Alex, is a little smiley soul. And he liked the barbeque at Franklin too.

I’ll tell you all about our experience there soon, but for now, here is his happy little picture.
