March 7 2017 Looking For a Quilt Shop

It wasn't raining when I got up this morning. It looked on radar that we might miss the rains as the little front blows in. Maggie and I took another long walk by the lake at daylight. We didn't see another soul. When we got back Susan was up. She had located some quilt shops near Lufkin. We headed out using map quest on our phones. The front blew in as we were leaving, it was smokey looking but it was actually pollen from the trees.  The temperature dropped about 10 degrees. Once on the road toward Lufkin we ran into a little rain. The first location ended up deep in the piney woods with no sign of a shop, the road actually dead ended where the shop was supposed to be. Not the first time in our travels we ended up like that. The second shop was in Lufkin but it was out of business.  We headed back and ate lunch in Kennard. There is one café called The Country Church Café,  Its a small place and the food was good. We headed back to the trailer and we both took a nap. Here is something crazy, there is another couple here that we met in a campground in New Mexico back in August. Sometimes its a small world. We just chilled the rest of the evening. We may go home tomorrow even though the weather looks great as we have some things to do.
Maggie loves to chase aquirrels
