Lastest adventure

We took a short trip to The Canyon of the Eagles near Burnet on Lake Buchanan. It was a nice relaxing trip and by Monday morning there was no one in the park except for us. We took a boat ride up river on Sun. all the way to Colorado Bend State Park which was about 20 miles up stream and then on Sunday we looked around for eagles and then looked at the houses along the lake. Glad we don't have to pay for the taxes on some of them. The waterfalls along the upper lake were sure pretty and I bet they were really pretty while we were having all the rain, but I bet you couldn't get on the lake at that time because of all the trash. Here are a few pics of our little getaway.

We could not leave until Larry got off of work on Saturday so it was a little bit shorter trip than we would have liked, but it was still nice not to have to worry about anything at home and just kick back. If I don't come back on beforehand, everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Hunting season

Well, Larry has had some pretty good luck this year. He couldn't let this one go. Not only does he never see one like this, but normally he can't hit it either, just kidding, kinda. It had 10 points and a 19" spread. Pretty nice for the ranch in Llano County.

Serena is on the high seas again. She left for Louisana on Sat. and had to be at Port something or other (close to Grand Isle) by noon on Sunday for the 2-hour boat ride to the barge. She thinks she may be out there for a week, but who knows. She will get back when they bring her back. I haven't heard from her yet to see what the food is like, but I am sure I will get a report soon.

I'll bet most of the men out there can not top the anniversary Larry and I had. I got wined and dined at the Cave Creek Wildlife Management Chili Supper. Try and top that guys. We did have an okay time and there was lots of good dessert and of course free beer.

I wasn't able to go to see Rena like I usually do on the first weekend of hunting season because we never know when she is going to get a call. Good thing I didn't since she had to leave on Sat. Hopefully I will get to do that yet this hunting season when she can ask to stay there for a few days.

That's all for now.

We are boring.

Well, there is not much going on. Rena is keeping the road to Louisiana hot. She has been called over there twice to do a fly over because the barge that is doing the blasting doesn't have a helipad. The first time she sat there for an hour and then had to drive back because they did not have their stuff together. She left a message again yesterday that she was going and this time she did do a fly over and they were able to blast and then she came back. So far she has not been out on a barge again, but I am sure that will change again soon. She kind of likes that she is able to be back home again in the evenings.

Larry will cook beans for the Cave Creek Wildlife Management Chili Supper on Friday since he has to work on Sat. So for our anniversary I am going to be wined and dined at the Cave Creek School. You don't get more romantic than that. Sat. he will leave to go up to Llano County and hunt with his dad, brother and Dennis and maybe the boys. Jerald won't be coming because they will just be coming back from Houston again for more tests for Marilyn (keep her in your prayers). Not sure what I will be doing. Rheingold is having an open house so I will be there part of the day and then I will see what kind of trouble I can get into.

Good luck to all the hunters.
