Saturday kicked off with the traditional Omelet in a Bag Feast, held in the very nice clubhouse that the RV Resort folks have placed at our disposal (free!).
Picture one is the Omelet Bar ready for the hungry hordes. hoardshords, Bunch.
Picture two is of a couple of starving guys trying to get the cook to boil the bags faster!
Picture three -- Finally! The Feast!
After a morning of conversation, cleaning up, and, in some cases, napping, Lorna led us on an educational and cultural tour of the area.
First the The Heritage Museum of the Hill Country, http://www.heritage-museum.info/, and http://talbot.mrp.txstate.edu/currents/fullstory.jsp?sid=335, where we learned all about the dinosaurs which roamed this area (and left their footprints) 65 to 100 million years ago as well as saw relics of the Homo Sapiens who settled the area sometime more recently. Picture 4.
Next up, Canyon Lake, the major recreational lake in the area. At the dam, which is several hundred feet high and appears to be more than 1/2 mile across, we were treated to an example of what the proper Texas lady wears when she's on a Saturday excursion with her Daddy. (Picture 5). Note especially the sunglasses and boots!
Rumor has it that we then went on to a well deserved ice cream break. Unfortunately, there's no incriminating photographic evidence.....
Then toward home on Lorna's favorite scenic drive featuring a 9 foot wide, 24,000 pound weight limit bridge over a beautiful little stream bordered by large Cypress trees. Sorry, no pics. Just imagine.....
We wrapped up the day in the usual fashion....(Picture 6).
George and Ruth Drake and friend Ed True left early in the morning and we missed their company throughout the day. Safe Travels!
More later.....
