Marc’s Adventures in San Antonio
This is a three part episode covering my first ever trip to San Antonio, Texas. I really enjoyed the trip and my varied experiences there.
Part 1 A trip to Paris Hatters
It was great meeting Alexandra Sledge and her dad Abe Cortez. In the end, I wound up with a Stetson Open Road model hat as a gift from Marcus Arky who joined me in the conversation with Alex and Abe. My hat
My main reason for a trip to San Antonio was to present at the World Petrochemical Conference.
Part 2 – Presentation on using Mississippi River for shipping containers on barge

Cost of building railroad track
One of the best parts of the trip was visiting the old Pearl Brewery which has been transformed into a mixed use project of restaurants, shops, a hotel and housing. We had a great meal at Cured and had a wide ranging conversation about the role of the Chief Hospitality Officer and how to build relationships with your customers.
Part 3 – A conversation with Marcus Arky of Metro Group Maritime and Jim Arnold of Red Sky Advisors over lunch at Cured in the Pearl District
