We have had some good days here in Texas, temperatures have been good, upper 70s and low 50s,plus storms have been staying away. I am updating this blog on our first rainy day here. About 1/2 in. of rain they are calling may be more. We have spent a day in Gruene, TX for Jodi’s Birthday. Have been here before while I was living here in San Antonio a few years back. Walked around and hit a few stores and had Jodi’s Birthday dinner at the Gristmill. A nice restaurant overlooking the Guadeloupe River.
Jodi getting ready for her chicken dinner.
When we walked around we came to this little store that had some BIG Chimes. They are about 7 feet long and sound nice. You have to hang them from a big tree and very high. They cost about 800.00.
To understand the size of these chimes, I had Jodi stand under one!!
We then went to San Antonio for a nice day to walk the River Walk, and checked out the Alamo. There were way to many people visiting the Alamo, so since Jodi and I have seen it a few years ago, we didn’t want to go. I took a few pictures. I have one I will post from a few years ago, and the one with the crowd of people was now. Had a great day seeing the sites along the River.
We are heading out in a few days to the Big Bend National Park. We will be set up to stay there for 8 days, and get some good pictures and see some of the beautiful open range and hills of that part of Texas. We both have never been out there, so all of this will be exciting.. Will be posting some pics of Big Bend in another week.. Till then, you all keep following and stay safe..
The Bobble head travelers, Mark and Jodi…..
We left Louisiana and headed into Texas and stopped at Lake Conroe just north of Houston. These campgrounds are Thousand Trails campgrounds. We stayed at Lake Conroe for 3 days and then headed to Medina Lake just outside San Antonio. We are at Medina Lake for 7 more days… Love the deer that come right up to you and your camping site…
