We’ve spent a quiet week enjoying our beautiful RV park, the
wonderful weather in Texas in May, and the delicious BBQ that can be found all
over this area. In addition, on Monday,
we celebrated our one year anniversary of living in “the 5th” (it’s
been a great year!).

This is a beautiful time of year to be in Texas, all kinds of flowers are blooming: the wildflowers, the cacti, and, my favorite flowering tree-Crape Myrtles.

Our RV park is outstanding. It sits along the San Marcos river and is filled with huge shade trees. This is especially nice since afternoon temperatures are in the mid to upper 80's each day.

We have eaten a lot of BBQ here; but that was one of the main reasons to come here! Most BBQ here is really smoked and served without plates, silverware, or sauce. It's truly superb!

Neither one of us has any genealogy in this area. However, that doesn't stop us from appreciating one of the most beautiful county courthouses we've ever seen in Lockhart, Texas (the BBQ capital of the world!).

Pat and I love Austin. There are so many things about it that remind us of Eugene. And, we love the "Keep Austin Weird" t-shirts. Of course, while we were in the area, we had to explore the Austin music scene.
