You Want Tacos With That?
All right! Look at everybody. Carol said just a few folks would be stopping in. I guess I better introduce myself before you call the blog police to find out why I'm here instead of her.
My name's Charlie Duran. I've lived in South Texas all my life, and right now I call Padre Island home. I own the Pink Tortilla. It's plain and simple, but it's been good to me and my family. Gabriel Duran is my son. You'll find out about Gabriel and the Pink Tortilla when you read IN NAME ONLY.
Carol said I shouldn't tell you anything that would be a spoiler for the story. From my perspective, that's not easy. So I guess I'll tell you that except for Summer, I was the first one of us to introduce myself to her. She didn't change too much about me - just moved me a few miles east to Padre Island instead of leaving me on Corpus Christi Beach where we first met. I can't complain about that.
I guess you're wondering where to find Carol.
Today she went over to chat at Sia McKye Over Coffee. Tell her I sent the cabana boys down to the pier to bring back some specks. I'm going to serve up some fish tacos for a lunch special.

Comments
Linda K - Now that's just wrong! I would never do that. We have REAL oysters here.
Anne - We're prepping now.
Andrea - Fish tacos in West Virginia? What do they know! Come visit us. I'll feed you real food!
Ciara - Come back for lunch :)
Alex - The lunch rush is over, but there's still one good-size trout on ice.
If the tacos are as good as Taco Cabana... I'll be back for seconds :)~
(P.S. thanks for the follow, and right back at y'all :)
I'm headed over.
Medeia - Tell them you know me when you come in. I'll treat you right.
Jan - Come to my kitchen! We'll cook and share some wine.
Michelle - I'll pass your comment on to Carol. You want a breakfast taco?
I didn't think I was a crime fiction sort of gal, but your characters and short story sure are pulling me in. :)
Yvonne.
Carol will be happy you like us!
Yvonne - You're looking mighty nice today. I'm Charlie, but I'll tell Carol :)
Lots of the setting details made me sigh and want to be there (eating a taco).
Sounds like you're having a great time!
