While I was in Houston, we did many things. We went to the new Aquarium. We went to see Guy Forsythe. We went out to eat and drank a bunch of booze. We went to the water wall near the Galleria. While we were at the wall, Tim noticed a young couple and approached them. He asked them if they had just gotten engaged. They had, so I offered to take a picture of them with my new digital camera, which I have added to my webshots, and email it to them. I emailed them yesterday and today I got the following letter:
Dear Rita,
THANK YOU so much for the picture. Matt and I both agree that it looks like a professional picture. This was the happiest moment in our lives, and if it wasn't for you it would just be a memory in our minds. Thanks to wonderful people like you we have proof of our glorious moment to hang on our wall. I cannot thank you enough for what you have done for us. I think you're an angel sent from God to us that day to capture the moment for us to have forever. We would like to keep in touch with you in the future. My fiance and his dad own a pool hall in Clear Lake called Breakers Billards. If yall are ever in the area we would love to see yall again. The number there is 281-316-0037, just call and ask for Matt. Again thank you very very very much.
Love,
Matthew and Tiffany
There was a specialness of the moment for me. I know that this couple will remember this day forever and that I, as would Deon, Meredith, Catherine, Felicia, and Tim would be part of that memory.

I am planning to come to Houston either later this month or sometime in April--how did you like the Landry's Acquarium, was it worth the price?
