Wednesday we needed to make a trip in to town for a few supplies – ice seems to be one thing we always want a lot of as we both like ice in most things we drink (even at home we struggle with the ice supply at times). Before heading to town about 7 milesContinue reading “Local Cafe’s Are Fun”

Hikes, Smiles and Sunshine
The cooler (cooler as in not 100 degrees all day) temps have made it so enjoyable to be outside more on this trip than in many past. We spent Tuesday hiking and having a picnic with the pups. We took part of the Bakba trail here to the Pineywoods Boardwalk trail. The Pineywoods trail isContinue reading “Hikes, Smiles and Sunshine”
Lake Livingston State Park
We left the house around 10 am to head to the Eastern part of Texas to camp for the week. The dogs love riding in the truck – Bella usually sleeps and Moki loves looking for cows. He seems to be very fascinated by them. After some weird roads that the lovely GPS took usContinue reading “Lake Livingston State Park”
Catching Up
Sorry it’s been a quiet week in here. Last week my divorce from my ex-husband became final. 4 days later he called to tell me it was time to put our beagle to sleep. She had lost all control of her bladder and her health was failing. After losing Casper at the end of JanuaryContinue reading “Catching Up”
Rainy Day “Hike”
We’ve been planning for a few days to have a day “date” to McKinney Falls State Park. Weather watching was in full effect but it still sprinkled on us for most of the visit this morning. We had packed a picnic of some cheeses and crackers, summer sausage and fruits along with some boiled eggsContinue reading “Rainy Day “Hike””
Artwork and Accomplishments
Yesterday afternoon with Michael’s help we did a poured painting on stream (pic of the finished product to follow). This was an acrylic painting on canvas. Basically you pour some paint on the canvas and move it around with your hands shifting the paint making shapes, lines etc with the paint. It’s actually a reallyContinue reading “Artwork and Accomplishments”
Doc’s Drive-In
Several weeks ago I had found through Facebook a drive-in movie theater not too far from home in Austin. Doc’s Drive-in located in Buda – it’s about 20 minutes from us – is a cute little 2 screen drive in movie theater. They show “older” movies no new releases – we saw a favorite ofContinue reading “Doc’s Drive-In”
Cooler Temps and Breakfast Casserole
The temps the last few days here in Austin have been cooler – yesterday we didn’t get above 65 degrees outside. Some rain moved in with a cool front and we actually were able to have the windows open yesterday. It’s been a tough week for me I’ve been battling some severe anxiety attacks butContinue reading “Cooler Temps and Breakfast Casserole”
Labor Day Adventures
Today’s adventures took us just north of Austin proper to Round Rock and the IKEA store there. I’ve never been to one and it was huge. We enjoyed getting ideas of things for the house and RV as well as sharing our likes and dislikes in decorating as well. We did leftovers for dinner –Continue reading “Labor Day Adventures”
Taco Saturday
It’s been a great Saturday relaxing and enjoying a cooler day here in Texas. I enjoyed streaming on Twitch while gaming with some friends and celebrating a friend’s birthday. Michael actually put the hammock up in the backyard today and was able to sit out and enjoy it while listening to an audio book. TonightContinue reading “Taco Saturday”
