I got up early this morning, just couldn't sleep and my back was aching. It was a light mist as Maggie and I took a dawn walk. We got back and just sat under the awning till Susan got up. We decided to eat breakfast at our favorite little breakfast place called "The Chess Club". Its a small house they made into a cafe for breakfast and lunch. We left there and made a little drive thru the country. It is really pretty and green with all the rain this spring.. We decided to go to LBJ"s place and tour the park; They have a living history farm that is really nice.They have volunteers that stay there during the day running the farm as it was originally done. They cook all their meals on a cookstove, raise a garden for food and also animals.The farm belonged to some neighbors of the Johnson's. Well worth the time to see.. We then toured LBJ"s ranch and exhibits.We didn't go to the home residence as we were getting tired. ..We left and took a back road back to Blanco , it was another pretty drive. We both took naps and then sat outside till supper. We went to our favorite little Mexican food place here not far from the park "Antonijtos". We could get pretty fat living in this area as there are a lot of good places to eat.We had a nice evening in the park.
