It really was, made a weekend out of it. I sat at a bar for the first time sipping strawberry daiquiris, experienced IMAX for the first time (only time, gotta do it again), took the test, and then came home to have my dad pass away.
Yes, it's a true story. I was in an auto accident on 11/11/2011. That's when my forehead met my windshield. The Medical Advisory Board of Texas revoked every license I had, including my drivers license. `After that I studied horticulture and started my own orchards (pomegranates & Jujubes). At the same time I managed the mechanics in my diesel shop, as well as performed small-engine repair in my spare time. I retired in 2016 when my mom had her first stroke and took care of her for 2 years until I couldn't handle her anymore. Maybe when I have more time free I'll start another business. I want to do something different.
