Thought I saw Flatlaner in the airport ahead of me

Had a flying trip to Bogotá this week, in and out of the capitol in less than 24 hours. :) As they were loading us into the plane I looked up ahead of me and saw a big ol' white Resistol hat on the top side of a character wearing Wranglers, boots and a western shirt. Made me feel a tiny bit inconspicuous in comparison. Was sure Flatlander had finally taken me up on my standing offer to drop in for coffee and a visit sometime, but then the kid turned his head and dashed that idea to pieces. Wrong Texan. I was sure I had the nationality down right and that thought was confirmed as he returned my greeting/welcome/inquiry with "Thank you. I'm from Dallas, Texas." Still don't know what brought him to Coffee Country, but it was interesting to see that particular mode of dress just north of the Equator and south of the Canal.
