or, finally, some good Texas BBQ.
We headed out about 8:30 this morning for the Gate Guard Services office down in Corpus Christi to submit our paperwork and fingerprint cards, and also take the Level II Security Guard Exam.
Leaving the Gate Guard office about 11:45 we drove over to a nearby Sam’s Club to pick up some supplies. Then we headed over to get some GOOD Texas BBQ
At Rudy’s BBQ, of course.

We ordered lean brisket for Jan, moist brisket for me, pork ribs for both of us, a loaded baked potato for Jan, and a jalapeno sausage link for me, and of course, a quart of their delicious cream corn. Something for everyone.
Jan doesn’t really like corn, but she loves Rudy’s. And we ordered enough extra of everything for 2 or 3 more meals at home.
It’s interesting to compare Rudy’s BBQ with our visit to Bill Miller BBQ a few days ago. But I can only compare the ribs and the sauce, because that’s all I had in common.
Both places have dry rub ribs that come with no sauce on them. But Rudy’s ribs are moist and juicy, even without sauce, while Bill Miller’s were dry and chewy. And Miller’s pretty much tasteless sauce certainly didn’t help things.
On the other hand, Rudy’s sauce is so good we bought a bottle of it a while back to take with us as we travel. As a matter of fact, Rudy’s sauce is so good it might even make Bill Miller’s BBQ more edible.
I wonder if we ever went back to Miller’s, they would mind if I brought a bottle of Rudy’s sauce with me?
We got back to the rig a little before 3 pm, and the first thing we noticed is that we have two new neighbors. Don’t know if they’re here to gate guard, but they probably are.
The first thing I did was go over to the office here and tell Jamie we were back and ready to go. I also ask him when he thought we’d have a gate. He said he had several things coming up, and it should be soon.
Good.
Later in the afternoon another rig came into the lot and parked over at the side where we were last week. It’s crowded here again.
Hopefully we’ll have a gate tomorrow, or Thursday, or ????.
We’ll see.
