My friend Niki took a trip to San Antonio on what she called a "pilgimage". She checked out all the sites that she could find from Still Breathing, here's some pics and some comments of hers about it. Special thanks goes to her for both the pictures and the amusing anecdotes.

"Of course the first thing I did is walk out front to try to get the exact location where Fletcher and the street performers were standing. I think I got fairly close. (Yes, I brought printed screen captures to compare to what I was actually looking at.) This big fat squirrel keeps crossing the road by me with nuts in his mouth. After that, I went inside. I hadn't been to the Alamo since I was a kid. Seems smaller."

"I was going to do a series of gimmick photos with Rick the action figure visiting the Alamo, visiting the Rose window, etc. After taking one photo and getting quite a few looks, I came to realize what a complete GEEK you tend to look like photographing an action figure at historic sites, so I gave up. Hehe Plus, I couldn't get right next to most of the sites anyway, and action figures tend to not be very effective in a photograph if they're only an inch tall. I got one though of Rick near the Alamo."
