The Hill Country of Texas

OK...I was recently reminded (or should I say "chastised") that it had been much too long since I'd posted. Not sure whether my excuse is that I've been too busy or that we haven't been doing anything worth posting. Anyway, here's an update.

We were in Stonewall, Texas, for almost a month in March and have been back at our pad since then. While we were in the Hill Country Roger did a lot of motorcycle riding, we did some sightseeing, I saw a therapist in nearby Fredericksburg for my wrist 2-3 times a week, and we checked out a LOT of places to eat. Actually, since a one-handed cook is limited on what they can make, we definitely did a lot of eating out this winter. But my wrist is much better now, so I can't use that for an excuse anymore.

I won't go into a lot of detail, but here are a few of the things and people we saw while we were there:
There's not much at Luckenbach, Texas, but that's us and Steve, Melba, Bobby and Dick the day we went there.
This was LBJ's home on what is now a State and National Park. The tour was quite interesting.
Dick, Steve, Mike, Bobby & Roger discussing which way to go next. Perhaps to the Motorcycle Museum near Utopia?

We visited Joe & Barbara in New Braunfels one day and they took us on a tour. Here's one of the parks we saw on the river and a picture of them in their front yard:

Just before we left the area, we visited San Antonio--had lunch at Landry's on the river and took a riverboat cruise...It was a beautiful day and a great way to end our stay in the Hill Country.

Since we'll be living a somewhat "normal" life until mid-June, it may be awhile before I have anything to post, but I promise we WILL be back!!!

  1. Roger and Brenda, sounds like nothing has changed, you two sure have a lot of run and see quite a bit of the US. We want to stay at Eagles Nest this summer, what RV park were you at last year. Norma and Ray

  2. Hi: We are making our plans for the summer and were wondering if you guys will be at Weathers again this year. Since we left out early on our reservation last year Marty may not let us come back! Tom and Dianna Persinger
