Potter's Creek

We had a really nice time at Potter's Creek Campground on Canyon Lake. The weather was pretty nice, although the wind did pick up on Sat. while we were on the lake and we got pretty wet by the time we got back to the dock (of course we were on the other side of the lake when the wind picked up). It was very relaxing otherwise. We even drove on the Guadalupe River Road and realized how lucky we are to have the Willow Creek to swim in and float on. I can't even imagine how crowed that area must be in the summer months. We may drive it just to see. I will try to post some pics sometime, but my computer is having some issues right now and until my compuer nerd daughter (lowe ya D'Lynn) can get it fixed it runs too slow to get anything accomplished. We plan on going camping in Feb. to Garner State Park and we are looking forward to that.

Larry has slowly been working the the bathroom and deck upstairs. He did get the mortar out of in between the rocks and got some of it remudded. There is a really big rock over the door that has to come out so he has been trying to figure out how to do that without it dropping to the floor and going all the way through to the cellar. That would not be good. Will keep you updated on the progress, but it is slow.

Camp on

Well we are finally going camping again. We are going to Potter's Creek on Canyon Lake. We may or may not take the boat, depends on the weather. We are both looking forward to getting away for a little while. Larry has all of next week off so I think the addition will be getting worked on if the weather is nice (has lots of outside stuff to do first). Will try to send pics of Potter's Creek when we get back. So just think of us sitting around a fire, drinking a cool one and just "kicking back". Later.

Christmas and New Years

Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a wonderful start to the new year. We ate too much, partied and visited a lot with family and friends, in other words we had a really nice time and it was great seeing everyone. Things are starting to get back to normal and even though it will be hard to go back to work for a full week, it will be good to get back into my old rut (apparently I like my rut and am comfortable there). Ashlyn and Colten will be showing Pork Chop and Ham this Saturday at the Mason Stockshow so we will be heading for Mason for that and hope they do well. It is always fun to watch the little ones try to herd the pigs around since they are bigger than they are. Will post some pics when my computer is working faster again (it decided to not turn on one day and my computer-gifted daughter is working on it).

Marilyn seems to be doing well for the time being and is awaiting more testing so that the bone marrow transplant can be done sometime this month. Keep her in your prayers.

Have a wonderful, blessed, healthy and fun new year.
